EAGLES TOO STRONG FOR SWANS AT SOLITUDE
Goals from Eoin Gallagher and Ultan Lennon helped Armagh City defeat Newington at Solitude.
Gallagher, a January transfer window arrival, from neighbours Loughgall opened the scoring on his debut after 18 minutes at the second attempt after Swans keeper Marc Maybin had pushed his initial effort back into his path.
Ryan Corrigan might have added a second before the break only to hit the inside of an upright before, on 71 minutes, Lennon did make it 2-0 when he got his head to a Lee Campbell corner.
Newington pulled one back in stoppage time through Michael Gallagher, his ninth goal of the season across all competitions.
