U14b Boys: Tramore 4 – 3 Mooncoin Celtic

Saturday morning we travelled to Tramore and were lucky enough to get to play on the main pitch in glorious sunshine.

We started well going 1-0 up with Emily Blackmore finishing from a lovely ball over the top (Emily loves scoring out in Tramore).

The lead was short lived after a dubious penalty was given against us for hand ball. We got on top again after this setback to get in the lead when this time Anil got behind the defence and finished brilliantly to make it 2-1.

Bizarrely after two defensive mistakes at halftime it was 3-2 to Tramore. At half time we felt we could regroup and get a result, after lots of pressure we equalised from a brilliant long range free kick from Daniel Ponce de Leon.

We kept passing and creating chances with Conor Walsh hitting the post after a lovely through ball in to the box followed by Daniel hitting the bar from a header only to lose the game in the last five minutes to another hand ball penalty desision, a cruel way to finish the game after the team giving everything.

A lot to take from the performance, MoM in this one Anil Ramaswamy who started at left Midfield then right midfield and ended in right back, gave absolutely everything he had.
