Two goals in the last ten minutes was the reward for Lisburn Distillery's perserverance at Holm Park. Up until then Armagh City had looked like achieving what they had done when the sides met earlier in the season, absorb the pressure and hit the Whites on the break. Well not quite, City offered more in attack this time around and Phil Matthews made two great saves to deny Kieran O'Connor during the game.

It was the Whites though who made all the early running in the first half. Peter McCann and Andy Kilmartin linked up well on the edge of the box but Kilmartin's shot was parried by Gavin Cushley. Francis Murphy put in some good work on the left and Marty Verner was unlucky not to connect with a Murphy cross, the ball just above him.

Cushley denied Whites skipper Wayne Buchanan when he saved an effort on the line at the near post before Armagh City went close.Matthews reacted brilliantly to arc up and palm away a well-worked effort from O'Connor before Shea Campbell was left holding his head after going close for the opener.

In the second period it was Matthews who again denied O'Connor punching out a close range effort before Campbell set up City's goal on 63 minutes. He sent in a deep cross from the right wing and James Slater dived to send a header past Matthews and in.

Deja-vu? - this time though the Whites came storming back, Andy Waterworth had a glancing header just wide, James Bell saw his drive blocked and Damien Mclaughlin looked odds-on to score following a super pass from Bell but he put it wide.

It looked another game of missed opportunities, but then Peter McCann broke on the right, his neat pass found McLaughlin and this time he made no mistake firing home from 10 yards out on 83 minutes.

The Whites kept the pressure going, and McLaughlin then popped up on the left hand-side of the box to drill the ball in at the near post and Waterworth got in to fire the ball home from a couple of yards out, with three minutes left to play.

The Whites' bench erupted, a fighting come-back and a good away victory ahead of next week's JJB Sports Irish Cup quarter-final.
