The former Cliftonville striker got the ball rolling as early as the 2nd minute with a stunning volley from 25-yards before following up with a somewhat less spectacular close range tap-in just eight minutes later.

Eamon McAllister almost added a third midway through the first half only for City 'keeper William McFrederick to pull off a brilliant save.

But goal number three eventually did arrive with ten minutes remaining when Tomas McCann pounced on a defensive error to guide the ball beyond McFrederick.
