Colts book Harry Cavan semi final spot
COLERAINE Colts sampled a sweet victory against their derby rivals Ballymoney Colts to book their place in the semi-final of the Harry Cavan Youth Cup last Saturday.
Goals from Millar, Turner, Dinsmore and Quigg booked Coleraine's place in the last four.
Bannsiders boss Victor Hunter was impressed by his young side: "I had the pick of both the Reserves and the Colts for this Youth Cup game.
"I can't fault any of the players, they all played very well. In partcicular Stuart Millar and Nigel Turner both deserve praise, the pair are regular Reserve team players and they were outstanding for the Colts on Saturday."
Coleraine started the game well with early chances from Doherty and Turner.
However, it was Ballymoney who took the lead from a corner kick after 25 minutes.
Coleraine soon drew level when Stuart Millar drilled home from 30 yards.
Minutes later Nigel Turner fired his side in front, when he powered his way passed two Ballymoney defenders to leave the half time score 2-1 to Coleraine.
The second half started with Ballymoney on top, and it wasn't long before the scores were level again.
Poor defending from Coleraine saw Ballymoney grab the equaliser.
However Johnny Dinsmore put Coleraine in front again, after some good play by Turner.
With ten minutes to go, substitute Paul Quigg was introduced, and he got in on the action quickly, grabbing Coleraine's killer fourth goal.
The Colts will meet Glenavon or Ballymena in the semi finals of the competition.
COLERAINE COLTS: Dunlop, Eastwood, Steele, G Quinn, Patton, Dinsmore, Millar, McAllister, Turner, Doherty, Hamiliton: Subs: R Quinn, McClean, Quigg.
