Declan Loye was the hero for Cleary Celtic on Monday when his second-half goal won the Mid-Ulster Shield for the Carnbane League Premier Division leaders.
At Armagh City’s well-filled Holm Park, the Newry men had to come from behind to claim the prestigious trophy against Division One side Portadown BBOB who lost a player to a red card early in the game.
Despite that setback, the Killicomaine-based club took the lead through Josh Mathers after only 19 minutes when he shot home an angled drive from inside the box.
