Currin gave their survival hopes in the Drumlin Group of Credit Unions Senior Football League another major boost with a 0-13 to 0-11 win over Magheracloone in their re-fixed match in Inniskeen on Wednesday. The sides were evenly-matched throughout and were level at half-time, but Currin held a narrow lead for much of the match and their greater hunger saw them over the line in an almost identical score as their defeat of Latton on Sunday. It completed a double success over Magheracloone for Currin and moved them ahead of Truagh and within one point of escaping the relegation zone.
