Eoin was captain for the day and led the boys into a pulsating match which saw Mooncoin dominate the early stages but the final ball was lacking despite their good build up play.

Tramore grew into it and were unfortunate not to score but for some brilliant goalkeeping from TJ with his hands and feet also. Tom hit a powerful shot from distance which the keeper managed to get both hands to. Rueben came in ten minutes before half time and linked up brilliantly with Billy only for the keeper to intercept the pass.

Tramore made the breakthrough on the stroke of halftime however with an unbeatable strike into the far corner. Some fresh legs came in the second half but Tramore went on the attack sending their forward through on goal but his well struck shot was somehow caught by Tom on the goal.

They followed up soon after with a second. Mooncoin got back into it with Billy haring down the left wing and his whipped cross was turned into the Tramore goal by their defender as he was running back. Shane showed great pace and endeavour down the right side as Mooncoin created chance after chance. Tramore got their third with a well taken volley which looped into the goal.

Mooncoin pressed on and Shane struck a brilliant goal after a goalmouth scramble. Billy hit the crossbar late on also but an equaliser never came in the end.

A heroic defeat for the boys who to a man played out of their skin today and scored two against the league leaders who up to now only conceded two all year. 3-2 the final score to the visitors.
