A very poor first half saw villa 3 up at half time but a stern talk saw life injected in to the girls with Mollie pulling a goal back before we missed a penalty which would have given us a grandstand finish but villa notched their 4th with minutes to go.

U16B Girls

U11D League
Mooncoin Celtic 1

U15 Boys
Mooncoin Celtic 2
Piltown 2
We welcomed piltown to Suir Crescent looking to maintain their 100% win record but the boys set out their stall from the off and Conor and Samuel with his first ever goal saw them lead but a long range free kick just before half time saw piltown go in to the second half in confident mood but the boys stood firm before a long range effort from piltown saw the points shared in an entertaining derby.

U14 Boys
Mooncoin Celtic 5
Ballyduff 2
The lads finished their league campaign with another win and will head in to the cup in confident mood.

3B League Result
Mooncoin Celtic 2
Villa 3
A very disappointing result where the lads will know they should have got the three points on offer. Two poor mistakes saw them two nil down before James Blackmore pulled a goal back with a penalty but another defensive lapse saw villa score but back we came with Adam Cunningham scoring and we still created chances to get a point but it wasn’t to be.

1B League Result
Waterford Crystal 0
Mooncoin Celtic 0
Two points definitely dropped here with plenty chances created but no finished product in front of goal with Tadhg Derwin, Stephen Wall, James Delahunty, James Blackmore,Danny West and Alex Kennedy all going close. Still unbeaten after 5 games and another clean sheet are the positives.

Final word to two of our goalkeepers who were representing Waterford recently. In a pre Gaynor cup tournament, Hannah Dobbyn was on duty in Clare where Waterford finished 5th of 12 teams in a very competitive competition.
Up in Sligo, Bradley Nolan kept goal in the U15 Development Final but unfortunately they were beaten 3 nil on the day.
Well done Bradley and Hannah, two keepers with big futures.

U13 Result Mooncoin Celtic 2 Piltown 2

Our U13s had a hard fought draw at home to piltown today that finished 2-2 it was a tight first half but piltown nicked 2 soft goals from set pieces. As soon as the second half kicked off Mooncoin Celtic were on top and got 2 goals back but probably should of got more. All and all the lads showed great character to claw their way back into it. Goal scorers were TJ and Aaron.

U11D League Result Dungarvan United 3 Mooncoin Celtic 1

A right ding doing battle took place in Kilrush Park in Dungarvan. A couple of early goals saw the hosts nudge ahead but our boys kept at it but unfortunately luck wasn’t on their side. Dungarvan scored a third before we pulled a goal back through Denis who headed home a corner. The second saw an even enough affair and Dungarvan held on for three points.
