League champions Cockhill Celtic left Ramelton with all three points following an entertaining game in Swilly Park.

Swilly Rovers 0 Cockhill Celtic 4

Gerry Gill’s free kick on 5 minutes was parried by Swilly goalkeeper Gareth Muldoon and Mark Moran’s follow up effort was also saved.

Tony McNamee with an angled shot from 8 yards was narrowly wide on 15 minutes.

Cockhill went ahead on 20 minutes when Brendan McLaughlin’s cross was fired home by Martin Doherty.

Ryan McDaid of Swilly had a great chance a minute later when the keeper denied him from three yards.

A minute later Cockhill broke away and Bart Wesolowski fired home from close range, despite strong protests from the Swilly defenders appealing for an offside.

Mark Moran on 62 minutes and Ethan Canning five minutes later with similar type efforts finished the game as a contest.
