QUEEN'S SURRENDER THREE-GOAL LEAD BUT COME THROUGH IN THE END
Queen’s University squandered a three-goal lead away to Tobermore United before eventually coming through by the odd goal in seven.
First half goals from Johnny Mairs, James O’Hara and Marc McKenna saw the Students hold a comfortable advantage after 42 minutes but Calvin McCallion’s spot-kick just before the break gave the home side some hope.
And so it proved with Rhys O’Mullan pulling another one back early in the second half, before Stuart Forrest struck late on to force the game into an extra half-an-hour … but it took a Lorcan McIlroy penalty ten minutes in to eventually settle it in favour of the visitors.
