BALLYMENA United were forced to come from behind at Annagh United to secure a place in the third round of the BetMcLean League Cup tonight.

Jordan Campbell pounced in the box from Craig Taylor's throw to equalise with 56 minutes on the clock.

A foul in the box on Tiarnan McDonald led to a penalty for the home side, Stephen Murray giving Annagh the lead in 65th minute.
|

|
Another penalty allowed Paul McElroy the chance to equalise for the Sky Blues, then after another 5 minutes Keeley got onto the end of a Ryan Waide cross to take the lead.

In the dying minutes Waide slipped a pass through to Jude Winchester who fired home to seal the game.
