ARDS SWEEP TO TOP SIX SPOT

Ards clinched their place in the top six with a thumping victory over Dundela at Wilgar Park.

Patrick Cafolla opened the scoring midway through the first half with a header past Sam Johnston, but the Duns levelled before the break through Jonathan Russell.

The visitors regained the advantage a few minutes after the break, before Cafolla extended their advantage just after the hour.

Adam Salley then knocked home his 20th goal of the season with less than a quarter-of-an-hour remaining. He did miss a spot-kick a couple of minutes after that before popping up in stoppage time that ultimately secured Ards' spot in the top half on goal difference.
