Mark Dickson scored Larne's winner against Dungannon
|
Larne snatched victory over Dungannon Swifts when Mark Dickson scored in stoppage-time at Inver Park.
An entertaining tussle looked to be heading for a draw until Dickson produced the winner, lifting Larne to sixth in the Premier League table.
Rodney McAree put Dungannon into an early lead but Larne hit back with a fine goal by Mark Parker.
Ormond Okunaiya edged Larne ahead but Dungannon then drew level when Timmy Adamson shot past keeper Alex Spackman.
McAree's opener came after just four minutes when David Scullion knocked the ball in for the Swifts midfielder who controlled before striking a fine shot.
Larne, with Robbie Weir and Stephen Small back in their team, equalised when Parker did superbly to find room on the edge of the box to shoot superbly past Stuart Addis.
Adamson's 49th minute goal put the Swifts in front but the lead lasted just four minutes as Okunaiya shot an equaliser.
