Coagh Reserves got their pre-season preparations off to a winning start on a difficult Mill Park pitch in Tobermore.

Coagh took the lead early in the game with a strike from Jordan Stinson.

The home side were back on level terms moments later from a fine finish from a Tobermore forward.

In a scrappy first half Coagh regained the lead through Jamie Holmes only to find themselves 3-2 down at the interval after giving away two soft goals.

Coagh improved in the second half, moving the ball better and creating more chances.

Jonny Johnson had a good chance inside the first five minutes of the half, Coagh got their reward when Andrew Creighton equalised and then crossed for Holmes who finished well at the back post to give Coagh the win.
