Tom led the team out on a bright Easter Monday morning for our penultimate home game of the season.

Mooncoin started well in the first ten minutes however De la Salle grew into the game winning a number of aerial balls in midfield and passing the ball into the channels between our defence. 

The goals soon came and despite Fionn’s best efforts the home team were three down at the interval.
Second half started well with Mooncoin winning a corner down the left hand side after good work by Kevin.

Tom whipped the ball into the 6 yard box and Sean nodded into the far corner of the goal. This was to be the highlight for the lads as there were no further clear cut chances after that. De la Salle scored one from a corner and another on the break as Mooncoin pushed for another goal.

Many thanks once again to our sponsors Dragonz Den.

Congrats also to Aaron on the birth of his little sister during the week.

Top of the table clash saw the u16 boys claw their way back into this game to earn a draw.

We have a special video of the goal too.

Exciting match today for our u12s away to Bohs. Mooncoin missed a good few chances before Robbie found the back of the net after 20mins.

Bohs were clinical and in a blink of an eye they were 2-1 up. Just before half time Fintan latched on to a blocked shot from Ethan to level it up.

Bohs took the lead again early in the 2nd half and except for a point blank save from Will it could have been worse.

Then a crazy ten minute period saw Robbie getting a second goal and Ethan getting a brace, the 2nd one from a good pass from Jimmy which was ruled just on side.

Overall a nice win for the MCFC boys.

Our young 1B team kick off the end of season run in for the club tomorrow morning when they start what will hopefully be a successful cup run. They play away to 1A side De La Salle at 10. 45 and support for this young side would be a huge help. If ye have time in the morning, pop in and shout them on.

We welcomed our neighbours Portlaw to Suir Crescent today in the hope of trying to grab the three points in what we knew would be a tight derby type game.

It was Portlaw who deservedly got the points with a one nil victory, they played the smarter football on the day, where we looked very leggy, a lot of our side playing a lot of extra sports this time of year is starting to show a bit, but we played to the end and we are still learning in this division.

MOM in this one was Cormac Fenton who worked hard throughout the game, also Jack Hearne pulled off two wonderful saves in each half.

We followed our recent 5.1 home win against Bohs with an away trip to Abbeyside. It took us a while to come to terms with the conditions and the first 15 mins was an even affair. The deadlock was broken with a cool finish from Jamie and from here on in we grew into the game.

An excellent corner from Alex was headed in at the near post by Aidan to send us in 2 nil up at the break .

The 2nd half saw the lads play with the hill and things started to click. A fantastic solo effort from Aidan put us in a comfortable position with 15 to go.

A lovely ball from Cathal to Aidan saw him cross to Luke who finished with style to put the game to bed. A great all round team performance with the defence of Jake,Conor,Alex, Jack,Billy and Mattie holding out for another clean sheet.

Mom: Aidan with a special mention for Billy
