Speaking on Sunday Sport after the game, Roscommon manager Davy Burke was a proud man after the game, and he said that this was something the team had targeted from the very first day he met them.
"I thought there was a lot of disrespect during the week," Burke told RTÉ Radio 1's Sunday Sport.
"We finished third in Division 1. On merit. And we were completely written off.
"You'd swear we were a lower level team altogether. I'm sure our boys were frustrated by that and I'm glad they put it right."
"It was a brilliant, intense game of football. Unbelievable. Fair play to the lads. First time, I met them, they said 'Easter Sunday, we'll be ready.'
"They were ready."
Roscommon will now advance to a Connacht semi-final, where they'll take on Galway in two weeks time, but Burke did say that the team will enjoy and celebrate this win.
"We'll have to enjoy tonight. You have to enjoy the wins as well. We work hard enough. We're six and seven months on the road so we'll enjoy tonight and tomorrow.Live sport on TV in Ireland this weekend – Football, GAA, Rugby – April 24th to 26th
