U13b Boys League: Mooncoin Celtic 3 – 1 Piltown

Mooncoin Celtic u13s welcomed Piltown to Suir Crescent this afternoon and it was always going to be a competitive battle.

With three minutes on the clock a corner from Piltown produced a great save from Will but the rebound was scrambled home. The lads heads didn’t drop and after a few minutes a brave 50/50 by Tommy with the Piltown keeper led to Tommy getting his deserved goal.

The match was hard fought with Mooncoin defending plenty of good Piltown corners and a goal line clearance by Naoise saved a bizarre chance. Just before half time a foul on the left wing led to a superb free kick by Sam which was too high for the keeper to keep out and Mooncoin went into the break 2-1 up.

The game opened up in the second half and following a disallowed offside goal, Fionn struck again to ease the nerves.

A few good saves from Bradley in the last ten minutes saw the game out with all of the squad playing their part today.
