Newry City reach Co-Operative Cup final

Lis Distillery 2-3 Newry City

Stephen Garrett celebrates after scoring one of his goals
Newry City reached the Co-Operative Cup final thanks to a dramatic 3-2 extra-time win over Lisburn Distillery. Mark Patton put the Whites ahead in the 43rd minute but Stephen Garrett shot past Philip Matthews to equalise on 58.

Garrett slotted home his second seven minutes later and Curtis Allen levelled with a 30-yard direct free-kick into the top corner in the 86th minute. Richard Clarke touched the ball home at the back post after the ball was played across the area in the 115th minute. Garrett had the first chance of the game in the 27th minute but his header from a Michael Collins free-kick was well tipped over by Matthews.

Sponsors may insist on that, but anybody with any sense would have it at Mourneview Park.
