There are a number of league matches today for the Schoolboys.
For the U12s they are away to Ballyduff.
The u16s have a home fixture against Park Rangers at 2.30pm.
It’s a big day for the club as our U14s participate in a national cup competition for the first time in many a year. In the SFAI Cup the u14s travel to Clonmel to take on Clonmel Celtic.
There are six girls from MCFC representing Waterford tomorrow in the Gaynor Cup matches against Wexford.
At U13 we have Aoibhe Rees, Emily Cooney, and Sophie Schaill. Special mention of Sophie who has been super in her U14 and U16 matches for Mooncoin and has been called up to the Gaynor Cup squad.
Did you know that back in 2018 Sophie was hugely vocal about the need for a girls team in Mooncoin and was over the moon when she heard it was going ahead. Since then we don’t think Sophie has missed one training session and has worked hard on her game and we here at MCFC central are so proud and delighted for Sophie as she breaks into the Waterford development squad.
At U15 we have Mia Ponce De Leon, Sommer Grant and Emily Blackmore.
The very best of luck to all the girls, and management team.
Mooncoin conceded an early goal in this match, but then Aaron equalised on 25 minutes. They scored again to go 2-1 ahead at half time. Aaron scored again after the break to level. Cian followed up minutes later to bring us to a 3-2 lead.
Ballinroad went clear on goal ten minutes from time but Fionn made a great save.
Ballinroad pressed on and got a late equaliser.
A 3-3 classic but solid defending from Mooncoin throughout in spite of the result.
A fiercely contested battle today between ourselves and Bohs .
A game that was filled with intensity from kick off to the final blow of the whistle.
Bohs got off to an flying start , when they slotted home to go 0-1 up after ten minutes , normally our heads would have dropped but the girls dug deep and clawed their way back into the game getting the equaliser ten minutes from the half time break. Bohs edged ahead yet again before the half time break .
The second half started with the same intensity as the first ,,, and five minutes in Mooncoin found the equaliser that set up a dramatic and suspense filled finish.
Five minutes from time Mooncoin took a well deserved lead and fought it out for every single ball after that until the final whistle blew. The chance of an equaliser came for Bohs built out goalie wasn’t going to allow it
3:2 to Mooncoin today , a fantastic and well deserved win for these players today, who never once gave up.
