Report:
A game lost that should of been out of sight at half time.
Carrigtwohill started strongly and had the opposition scrambling in defence, great link up play between Ryan Moore and Alex Motriuk got Ryan in behind the defence and keeper saved smartly down to his right and went out for a corner.
The ball was swung in by Alex and Ryan with a towering header found the back of the net, 1 nil.
Carrig almost made it 2 when a shot from Sam Collins from outside the box came back off the crossbar and defence scram the ball away.
A hopeful clearance from the opposition defender led to the equaliser 30 seconds later, a missed header and a calamity of errors at the back, 1-1.
