Weekend Review

U12A Results
Ferrybank 3
Mooncoin Celtic 1
Last Thursday the boys returned to action after a long lay off and the rustiness was evident from the off. They slowly grew in to the game but left themselves too much to do with Ferrybank getting their 3rd near the end after an og had got the lads back in to the game.

Tramore 1
Mooncoin Celtic 0
On Monday evening, a tight game in damp conditions saw Tramore edge the three points but a much improved performance by all on duty.

Ballinroad 5
A slick Ballinroad side showed why they are one of the divisions top teams. First half was tight enough with Ballinroad 1 up with Billy having our best chance. Second half saw Ballinroad stick away a few nice goals with TJ being very unlucky not to keep a couple out, Donncha scrambled home our own goal.

A long wait for their second win is over for this group as they put in their best performance to date. A goal from Tom had them 1 up at half time and a second by Liam Mc secured the three points on offer.

Park Rangers 2

When these two met back in November it was a goal fest with park rangers winning.
This game was the polar opposite with us holding them scoreless until 10 mins to go when we were undone by a short corner that found itself in the top corner with the swirling wind.
We pushed for an equaliser and probably committed too many forward and park rangers scored again late on. A great battle by both teams on the day.

Villa 5
This was always going to be a tough game for our youngest group as champions elect Villa showed their class in the second half with a number of classy finishes. They had done very well up to half time.

U15 League Result
Bohs 3
Mooncoin Celtic 3
U15s travelled to Bohs with a depleted team due to illness on Saturday afternoon but it didn’t deter the team. Cathal M scored from kick off within seconds. Bohs fought back and scored a great goal to level the game. A penalty to bohs gave them the lead at half time. A good hard fought battle with both teams having shots at goal. Charlie M was brought down in the penalty area and scored from the resulting penalty making it 2-2. Bohs got a 3rd half way the 2nd half before Conor P scored from a well taken corner from Cathal. 3-3 the final score. Bradley pulled off some outstanding saves in goal, Ella, Charlie and Conor H were outstanding but the whole team played fantastic.
Great tough game from Bohs.

Southend 3
Our u12 girls came up against Southend this morning. Another very good performance. We started on the front foot and for the first quarter were on top, but unfortunately couldn’t convert any chances. Southend scored against the run of play and that really settled them. Both teams went toe to toe for the rest of the first half but our opponents scored a good goal on the stroke of half time. Both defences were on top for the second half but Aoibhe V found a way through, with a great finish.
A blatant penalty for the girls, towards the end of the half was not given, and an unfortunate mistake finished the game at 1-3 to Southend.
Well done to all the girls who are improving game on game. The commitment and hard work in training is really showing on the pitch.
