Carniny travelled to Aquinas pitch to play Ards for a place in the last 8 of the cup. The first half was a dour affair and the depleted Carniny squad were finding it tough to break down Ards.They finally did on the 29th minute when Harley Farenden cut in from the left and he scored to make it one nil.
The second half saw Carniny make two changes and this paid off as they started to control the game and as a result had several chances but the Ards keeper was in good form. Farenden made it two nil after 46 minutes when the Ards keeper spilled the ball and he prodded home. Ards were dangerous but the Carniny defence held firm and Carniny went on to make it three nil when Byrne scored on the 64th minute. Final score three nil to Carniny and into the hat for the Quarter finals.
