The second half saw a much improved Ballymena performance and two quick goals from leading scorer Peter Rankin and Sam Armstrong increased their lead to 3-0 however Lurgan snatched a goal back after some slack defending.

Calvin Purse scored his second and Ballymena's fourth when he got between a Lurgan defender and their goal keeper to stroke the ball into the net.
