Gary McCutcheon was on target for Portadown

Shea Campbell timed his run well and fired past Kevin Pressman on six minutes to give the home side the lead.

Gary Liggett levelled with a thunderous left foot shot past Gavin Cushley a minute later after Peter Kennedy laid the ball off into the striker's path.

Stephen Hyndes scored with a 25-yard shot on 45, Gary McCutcheon equalised with a shot three minutes after the break and Kennedy made it 3-2 after 52.

Kennedy converted an easy finish after Liggett's shot was dropped by Cushley.
