The londonderry outift scored the only goal of the tie after 20 minutes, but despite the scoreline, Coleraine Reserves boss Aaron Forgrave was happy with the display.
“I had a number of young players from the Academy with us for the game, and they didn’t let themselves down.

“We also had Sam Boylan, Karl Steele and Paul Wells who are still young in the squad.
“I was disappointed with the goal we gave away, but it was a good perfomance, with a lot of good football,” said Aaron.
The second string boss picked out centre back Garrett Quinn and winger Ryan Doherty for praise.
