Nine goal thriller

CRAIGAVON City under 18s and Hillsborough produced a nine goal thriller on a freezing wet Saturday morning.

Favourites Hillsborough took on a City side without influential players like Daniel Robinson, Jamie McGrath and William Lee.

The game was scoreless at half-time but in the second period it was a different story.

City took the lead through Ryan McConville but this only lasted five minutes as Hillsborough equalised.

Daniel Skelton then put City in front again before Hillsborough scored three times and City looked dead and buried.

However Captain Fantastic Andrew Nugent scored two goals to get City back before a last minute mistake at the back ended up with the ball in the City net.

This week City have a free week to go watch the first team in action in the Junior Cup.
