St Columbs College took home the Under 16 cup at the NISFA Boys Finals Day after three goals in the final ten minutes sealed an 3-1 win against St Patricks of Belfast.
It was a good day for St Columbs as they also took home the U12 Minor Cup thanks to a late goal from Eoin Doherty in extra time.
In the big game of the day, it was St Patricks that took the lead with just 15 minutes to go as the ball fell kindly to Thomas Logan inside the six yard box to tap in.
St Columbs College had earlier hit the woodwork twice and must have wondered if it would be their day but with ten minutes to go they got their equaliser as Ryan Tabbitt scored on the rebound after his first shot was saved.
The turnaround was soon completed as Jordan McEneff pounced on a loose ball to tap in past the diving St Patricks defenders and the win was confirmed with a third goal in added on time.
U18 Plate: Northern Regional College 1-0 South Eastern Regional College
Also, in the Under 18 Plate, Northern Regional college overcame a two man deficit to defeat South Eastern Regional College.
Just after the 20 minute mark, NRC took the lead through striker Jamie Coulter who headed in from close range but as the whistle was nearing the referees lips for half time, NRC defender Patrick Gault earned himself a second yellow card and was sent off.
Things got worse though for NRC soon after the restart as they went down to nine.
However, NRC defended well and captain Josh Dunn was called into action firstly to keep out a good low strike from SERC midfielder Jordan Pegg and then in the four minutes of added on time, he dived high to his right to keep out Christian McMaster.
