No, Angel Hidalgo misses the birdie putt too so he finishes two back in a tie alongside fellow Spaniard Rafael Cabrera-Bello.

He looks understandably dejected.

Angel Hidalgo.

Last-chance saloon.

He sends his eagle putt on its way but it dies to the left and that's going to be that for the Spaniard.

He's given us a huge amount of entertainment this week.

What a moment.

Right, back to business on the 18th.

What has Angel Hidalgo got for us?

Ah, he doesn't like it. He's on the green but that must be about 70 feet for the eagle he needs to match McIlroy and Lagergren.

Surely not...

Folks, the Irish Open is not done yet!

Remember, Angel Hidalgo can still match McIlroy's eagle to force a three-way play-off.

He's found the fairway...

"RORY RORY RORY!"

The fans are going wild at the K Club.

What a moment.

HE'S MADE IT!!!

Right, this is it.

It's not an easy putt by any stretch, but Rory McIlroy has stepped up in the past.

Can he do it this time?

From 25 feet, here comes his eagle putt...

Rory McIlroy is given a rousing reception as he walks on to the 18th green.

Can he deliver a grandstand finish for his legion of supporters?

McIlroy gives himself a chance!

He'll have around 25 feet for an eagle to tie Joakim Lagergren.

McIlroy has annihilated his drive 340 yards down the 18th.

That's a start.

Angel Hidalgo's in the trees down the right on 17 but looks to have a path to the green.

He backs off as the wind picks up but re-addresses his ball and gives it a lash.

Oh it's a fine shot. On the green. Well short, but still putting for birdie.

Lagergren. For birdie.

In it goes! That's a closing 66 and he posts 17 under.

What a round by the Swede.

McIlroy needs an eagle. Hidalgo's not out of it yet either.

McIlroy needs to find one last good drive.

Whack! That's launched way down there. Importantly, he's in the fairway.

This ain't over yet.

Lagergren understandably takes his time to weigh up this lengthy putt for eagle on the last.

Here it comes...hmmm, it's a decent effort but he's left himself with one of those for birdie.

Around four feet or so.

There's no birdie for McIlroy on 17 and it's looking like he'll need an eagle down the last, just like he did at Royal County Down last year.

Is he going to come up just shy again?

Joakim Lagergren needs one last good swing.

With the water left, it's no surprise to see him block his second out to the right. That's not a certain two-putt.

Angel Hidalgo found the 16th in two but was a little tentative with his approach putt.

Downhill. Five feet. For birdie. His hopes hang in the balance.

But he makes it! Crucial.

McIlroy has around 170 yards into the 17th.

But not for the first time this week, he's off with his distance and faces a lengthy putt.

This is definitely Lagergren's to lose.

Joakim Lagergren hammers his drive down the fairway on 18.

He's locked in and can really pile the pressure on McIlroy now.
