The curtain came down on the season at the RSC back pitches this evening and Benfica showed why they are in contention for a possible double with a ruthless performance against our young side. The girls on duty this evening battled throughout the game. Tough season for our young squad against top opposition with plenty of positives to take for all players. Big thank you as always to supporters for cheering on the girls.
Ladies Cup Semi final Result : Mooncoin Celtic 0 Benfica 3
From the off our young ladies side set their stall out to frustrate Benfica for as long as possible and try catch them on the break. Our young back 4 were superb throughout the first half and really limited Benfica to long range shots. A lapse on 15 minutes was the only downside when a run from deep by the Benfica winger resulted in the opener. The whole midfield and Caoimhe Power up top done huge work throughout the first half and deserved more for their efforts. 1 nil at half time. A similar plan for the second half was set out but an early goal from a corner put a bit of daylight between the teams. A late third goal by Benfica saw them progress but a huge sense of pride in the disciplined performance by our young starting side with an average age of just 19. Best of luck to Benfica in the Cup final. Big thank you to all the supporters today throughout the game.

1B League Result Mooncoin Celtic 2 Seaview Celtic 2
A rip roaring start in Suir Crescent this evening with Adam Cunningham opening the scoring from a neat free kick routine on 10 minutes. Chances to beat the band came throughout the first half for us and Ryan Carroll tucked away our second on 25 minutes. A poor defensive error resulted in a goal being pulled back for Seaview. Try as we might we couldn’t add to our tally before half time. Second half saw a similar trend, chances a plenty but no finish to extend our lead and we got punished on 80 minutes with Seaview tucking away the equaliser. We still had more chances before the end but again poor finishing and good goalkeeping kept us out. Disappointing result but we’ll take the positives of all the chances created throughout the 90 minutes.
