MATCH REPORTS
Carniny U9 2-3 Greencastle Rovers
SBYL – Blanchflower Stadium
Carniny went 1 nil up in the opening minutes with a fanatic freekick from Adam. Greencastle had a few good chances to equalise but some excellent defending and goal saving tackles kept the reds ahead. Adam then made it 2 nil with a breakaway goal. The reds could have been further ahead at half time, but a couple of missed chances and a possible goal of the season ruled out from Noah, who was marginally offside, kept the score at 2 nil. Unfortunately, throughout the second half Greencastle were on the front foot and although Carniny worked hard and continued to press the opposition, conceded 2 goals and then a third in the final minute. A tough loss to take but lots of positives to take away from the defeat.
