I caught up with the entertaining Championship 2 encounter between Academy and Lisburn at a windy Roughfort on Saturday afternoon.

Academy started strongly and spent most of the first 20 minutes in the Lisburn half. The visitors defended resolutely and they boosted their confidence by restricting their hosts to a solitary penalty, from Michael Wilson, during this period.

Michael Wilson kicks the first of three penalties.

It got better for Lisburn as they responded with two quick penalties rom Richard McGregor to take the score to 3 – 6 around the half hour mark.

Richard McGregor also landed three penalties for Lisburn.

Academy hit back two minutes later . . .
