The lads performed brilliantly yesterday in conditions not seen since the World Cup in Qatar and with a depleted squad really put it up to the home team.

Indeed it was Kilmacthomas who started the brightest pinning us into our own half and scoring a goal which although deemed offside by the linesman was allowed to stand. The lads rallied after the first water break and Donncha struck a superb equaliser.

Second half started with plenty of end to end action which led to Kilmacthomas taking the lead with a well taken goal.

Mooncoin pressed on for an equaliser which never came but not for the want of trying.

Ferrybank proved too hot to handle in red hot conditions on Saturday morning.

Between injuries, holidays and other reasons we were down to the bare bones in this one but the players on duty done themselves proud pushing Ferrybank all the way before they pulled away in the last 10 minutes.

Luke Harrington and U11 star Cian O’Donoghue were our scorers on the day and we give credit to Cian for stepping up and helping the lads out. . Best of luck to Ferrybank in the semi finals.
