A great ball over the top from Mahoney was controlled by Carberry with a great finish to make it 3 – 1. The same two players combined for Downpatrick’s fourth, Carberry made another again great run and pass to Mahoney who beats the defender for a lovely finish. Just before half time Downpatrick lost concentration and failed to clear the ball which allowed the Lurgan striker to score and make it 4 – 2.
In the second half both Peter Carberry and John Mahoney completed their hat-tricks, some great build up play and one touch football in the middle of the park helped Carberry who made no mistake with a great finish. Mahoney then got on the end of a great pass and slid the ball past the helpless Lurgan Town keeper. Joshua Prendergast then completed the scoring with a volley from just inside the box and made it 7 – 2.
