LISBURN COME FROM BEHIND TO WIN AT INVER
Lisburn Ladies defeated Larne Women by the odd goal in three in this season opener at Inver Park.
Scoreless for most of the first half, the game roared into life moments from the break when Hollie Johnston fired Larne in front in stoppage time when she was quickest to react to the rebound after Ella Parker's initial effort had been pushed out by keeper Jessica Poots.
However the visitors equalised almost immediately through the experienced Stacey Murdough to send the time in at the break on a level footing.
And, perhaps boosted by this, it only took Lisburn six minutes of the second to seize the advantage themselves when Rachel Kerr turned home what proved to be the winner from the edge of the area.
