Carrigtwohill United 3–1 Riverstown A
A brilliant team performance saw us secure a 3–1 win against Riverstown A. We started brightly, playing some great flowing football. Eventually, we took the lead from a well-worked corner taken by Roger, with Paulie Kelleher connecting perfectly with a bullet header. Although we conceded a penalty late in the first half, the lads knew the game was there for the taking.
We kicked on in the second half, with JP coming on at half-time and scoring twice, in the 52nd and 63rd minutes, assisted by Eoin Lombard and Roger. We controlled the game from there, with every player contributing on the day. Callan, Paulie, Roger, Eoghan Rall and Jack defended as a unit. Odhran, Oisin, Zac, Ryan Barry, Charlie and Mossie worked their socks off in the middle, while Ryan Matthew, Eoin Lombard, Rian, Milosz and JP powered us forward.
Special mention goes to Roger, who played outfield in the first half before going in goal for the second, where he made two superb saves. He also contributed two assists, one in each half. Mossie played in goal in the first half with Luke away and was solid and steady throughout. Both lads showed their willingness to help the team, and their contributions played an important part in the win.
