It was always going to be a tough game against league leaders St Joseph’s but the lads made it hard for themselves straight away when they conceded 2 in the first 2 minutes.

After an underwhelming display in the first half they were determined to try and get something out of the game when Pete Dunphy scored a screamer just past the half way line.

Fair play to all the lads today for a great second half performance and keeping their heads up throughout the game. It is also a valuable lesson to the squad to not treat any team with too much respect or they will get punished for it.
