Dollingstown win promotion

A 2-1 deficit from the midweek first leg left Brantwood with the upper hand entering the Planters Park meeting.

However, first-half goals by Adam Walker and Neil Clydesdale turned the tie before Colin Cunningham grabbed a decisive hat-trick after the interval.

Nine-man Brantwood scored directly from a free-kick and grabbed a second on the day with a penalty kick during the 6-4 aggregate defeat.

Dollingstown - fresh from a Mid-Ulster clean sweep - now face a crucial summer in preparation for next season’s NIFL Championship Two debut campaign.
