Christmas came early for Cappoquin this morning. 87 minutes on the clock, Mooncoin Celtic leading 2-1, 94 minutes on the clock Cappoquin leading 3-2 and went home with 3 points.

Kevin Law continued his goalscoring form and put us ahead after 20 minutes from the penalty spot and we could have been 2 or 3 up after good work by Eric Walsh up top throughout the first half.

Cruising early in the second half we conceded a very soft goal (early Xmas present number 1)to allow Cappoquin back in the game.

A triple substitution yielded an immediate return with one of the subs, youth player Adam Conway sliding a pin point pass through to Kieran Fagan to slot home.

With the clock running down, an extremely soft penalty was awarded to Cappoquin (early Xmas present number 2) and they scored.

Poor defending on 90 minutes saw a cross come straight across the penalty area to be nodded home by the Cappoquin centre forward.

Good performance in patches, terrible result in the end.
