Carryduff made a fast start and had a couple of early chances Aidan Martin hit the crossbar and a goal mouth scramble occured afterwards and we where unlucky not to force the ball home.
Niall Tunney had a good chance after exchanging passes with Declan Magee but the ball wouldnt come down for Niall to finish.
We conceeded a soft goal down our right hand side after the midfielder was allowed to cover a lot of ground and after beating two he calmly slotted home for 1 – 0.
Again we gifted Celtic boys a second after over playing at the back the ball was intercepted and again the Celtic forward finished with some style to make it 2 – 0.
After half time we had a couple of chances one for Declan Magee which the keeper saved bravely at Declans feet , and a good chance for Gary Topping after some good play put Gary one on one with the keeper but he just put his shot over the bar.
Celtic then scored a third from a corner, slack marking allowed the Celtic player to head in unchallenged from 6 yards out and kill the game.
This was the first time this season we have been outplayed and Celtic boys fully deserved the result , after a good performance we wish them well in the final.
