Lowland League side East Kilbride set up a fairytale home Scottish Cup tie against Celtic after beating Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale.
Jack Smith's stunning half-volley settled Kilby just before half-time, although the visitors had earlier hit the crossbar through Willis Hare.
East Kilbride goalkeeper Matt McGinley denied Hare after the break with a great diving save.
And Sean Winter sealed a money-spinning fifth round tie from close range.
Whether that match versus Celtic will be allowed to be played at the 500-or-so-capacity K Park remains to be seen, but the result has well and truly put East Kilbride on the map.
The hosts had failed to profit from their early dominance as Anthony Brady's mazy run left him one defender short of being clean through and Craig Hastings dragged a low shot wide of the far post.
Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale from the East of Scotland League took Kilby's profligacy as encouragement. The hosts' goalkeeper Matt McGinley had to be sharp to deny Hare before the same striker cracked the crossbar from 16 yards.
An injury to midfielder Ross Smith had East Kilbride rattled for a short spell but they got the crucial first goal shortly before the interval.
The visitors' stand-in 'keeper Byron Gibb had previously made a couple of decent saves but had no chance when Smith lashed in from the edge of the box following a blundered defensive clearance.
Scott Gormley missed a half-chance for Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale early in the second half and it did not take long for Kilby's Brady to cause more problems with his dribbling.
Smith had the opportunity to double his tally but fired wide of the near post.
In the meantime, East Kilbride captain Barry Russell chose to try and change his boots and ended up playing the majority of the second half with one black and one green one.
Hare continued to be Lothian Thistle HV's main threat and McGinley pulled off a brilliant low save to turn the striker's shot round the post.
And the home team could afford to start thinking about their meeting with the Scottish champions in earnest when the seasoned Winter showed his predatory instinct to poke the ball home following an 86th-minute corner.
