STRABANE Athletic Reserves are joint top of the Premier Division following an impressive win away to Foyle Wanderers.

The Tyrone men secured all three points in an eight-goal thriller against the basement boys at Bready Cricket Club's grounds.

Fionn Faherty, Kelvin Nelson, Sean McGinley, Jayden Stewart and Oran O’Doherty netted for the visitors.

The result sees Strabane sit joint top on 13 points with Carrowreagh Celtic who have played two games less.

A club spokesperson said: "Some great football and great goals scored.

"The pick of the bunch coming from Sean McGinley who put one in the top corner from 25 yards.

"A special mention to Travis Logue who made his senior debut for the club at just 16 years of age, coming on and hitting a great free kick just narrowly past the post.

"Thanks to the travelling support on the sidelines.

In Division One, Donemana were defeated 4-1 by Phoenix Athletic with Timmy Dougherty scoring Donemana's only goal.

Phoenix Athletic Reserves were the visitors to Art Road on Saturday afternoon to face Artigarvan in a keenly contested Division Two game.

Joel Smyth and Jay Thompson scored for the hosts to ensure a share of the spoils.

Cody Mehaffey's performance earned him the Man of the Match award.

Artigarvan currently sit third in the league, one point adrift of second placed Roe Rovers and with two games in hand.
