After this early goal both teams created a few chances but it was the 50th minute before Mark Kidd scored to put Kilbride two goals in front but then saw his own side concede an own goal to reduce the lead to one on the 55th minute.
Ballycastle tried hard to get the equaliser after this but two more goals scored by Mark Kidd and Jordan Kernohan on the 69th and 76th minutes killed off their hopes. Referee Mr Gary Crawford

O’GORMAN CUP SEMI-FINALS
Dunloy 2 v 0 Clough Rangers Athletic
The games between the two teams this season have been very tight and in most cases the defences have had the upper hand. Saturday was again no exception with no goals being scored during the first-half. The second half was following a similar pattern and extra time looming when John John McFerran broke the deadlock when scoring for Dunloy on the 85th minute. Clough then had to throw caution to the wind in an effort to get the equaliser but got caught when Benny McGarry broke through to score a second Dunloy goal on the 88thn minute.Referee Mr Paul Doherty
Ballynure Old Boys 6 v 7 Brantwood (After penalties)

Newtownabbey 7’s 3 v 2 Ballymoney United Reserves
The sevens got off to a cracking start in this game when Sam Davidson scored on the 3rd minute then followed this up with his second goal in the game on the 16th minute. Half-time saw Newtownabbey still two goals clear but this changed after Conor McKenna scored for Ballymoney on the 61st minute and David Nicholl scored the equaliser on the 65th minute. Newtownabbey who had been pegged back got their noses in front again when Dave Ramsey scored on the 68th minute and though Ballymoney tried hard this goal took Newtownabbey through to the final.Referee Mr Lee Patterson
