Carrick V Mooncoin was the u16 cup semi final fixture ,,, and with teams that finished joint second on the league table , it was always going to be a battle .

Both teams went at this game with the prize of a Cup final at the forefront of their minds .

Mooncoin put it up to Carrick . Our previous meeting had been a one way affair , and our girl made sure that , that wasn’t the case again last night .

Carrick pressed from the beginning and our defence worked very hard to keep them at bay . Mooncoin pressed equally and saw a chance to score come and go .

Carrick took the lead mid way through the half , but Mooncoin battled and stuck together and brought it to the break still at 1-0 .

The second half was just as epic as the first half. It was end to end stuff . With Carrick scoring their second goal on the mid way mark of the second half . That goal ultimately putting the game beyond our reach .

Carrick move on to a Cup final, and last nights game brought the curtains down on what has been a fantastic season for this u16 Mooncoin Team .
