It's all too easy for Institute as they destroy Loughgall in a one-sided League Cup tie at the Brandywell tonight

Institute made light work of Championship side Loughgall in a one-sided League Cup tie at the Brandywell this evening.

Institute 5

Loughgall 1

Paddy McLaughlin's men were heavy favourites to progress in this one and there was little chance of an upset as 'Stute continued their fine start to the season with an impressive victory.

Recent addition Darren Henderson got the ball rolling for 'Stute with his first goal for the club early on, and the home side were comfortable when Joe McCready scored his first goal of the season to double the advantage on 28 minutes.

By half-time it was 3-0 as Ronan Doherty found the net with a header and the game was all but over as a contest.

The rout continued in the second half with Henderson grabbing his second goal of the game after good work from McCready on 55 minutes and Henderson then turned provider for Jamie Dunne, who made it 5-0 on the hour mark.

Nathaniel Ferris pulled a goal back for Loughgall but it was no more than a consolation for the outclassed visitors.
