Carrick Rangers captain David Cushley scored an injury-time penalty to clinch a 2-1 home win over Dungannon Swifts.Dungannon levelled as Joe Moore fired into the the bottom corner and it stayed level thanks to a superb display by Swifts keeper Niall Morgan.
It was a deserved victory for Carrick although Cushley was fortunate to receive just a yellow card for a high tackle which caught Moore in the first half.Danny Purkis saw a shot blocked before Rangers moved in front with a slice of fortune as Marron could only clear Forsythe's dangerous cross past a helpless Morgan.Morgan first came to his team's rescue two minutes later as he kept out a Nedas Maciulaitis shot and again as the stopper tipped over Ben Tinley's long-range effort.
Matthew Lusty fired over as the Swifts sparked to life after the goal but Carrick were soon on the attack again with Purkis denied by Morgan and Curtis Allen headed over from the follow-up. Cushley headed wide and Josh Andrews wasted a golden chance as he moved clear but his flicked effort was easily saved by Morgan.
