LURGAN BBOB

Lurgan BBOB II played at home on Saturday against Ballyoran II in their season’s last and important game, where they finished with a valuable 2-2 draw to keep them four points ahead of Ambassadors II who have two games left, in their bid to avoid relegation from Reserve Division 2.

On the balance of play, this was a game that BBOB II should have won against leading team, Ballyoran II. BBOB twice led at 1-0 and then 2-1 by half time, with veteran striker Mark Emerson scoring a brace of goals. However, Emerson also missed a first half penalty kick, which would have given him a hat-trick.
