IRISH LEAGUE: It's make or break time for Ballinamallard after loss at Dungannon

Cormac Burke was the hero for Dungannon Swifts with two goals to defeat Ballinamallard.

The midfielder came off the bench to inspire the home side to a dramatic victory.

The Swifts trailed at half-time, but levelled through Ally Teggart.

In a goal-packed second half, Burke then put Dungannon ahead.

Ballinamallard equalised, but Burke scored for a second time to make it 3-2.

Gary Liggett rounded off the win with a stoppage time fourth.

The win moves the Swifts back into seventh place.

But defeat is a major blow to Ballinamallard’s hopes of staying in the Danske Bank Premiership.

They must recover quickly from this loss ahead of two make-or-break games.
