Great Comeback By Rosies

Wednesday  Division 4

The Average Joes left 2 points slip against Rosies as the Carrigaline boys came back from 5-2 down with 10 minutes to go to earn a point. The Joes helped Rosies by conceding an og for Rosies 4^th, and Mark Cunningham levelled late on with a fine strike.

James Mealy showed Sub Standard Liege the way as he ran the show from midfield, as they easily beat the Inbetweeners. Phil Wade also chipped in with some slick finishing. How the Inbetweeners contributed largely to this game that produced a high level of skill more accustomed to division 1.

The tongue twisting between Fritzl Palace and Crystal Fallace ended in a 2-2 draw and a share of the spoils. This game was a bad tempered affair with 3 red cards. Darragh O’Regan scored an excellent goal for Fallace as Mike Wren  and Paul Stack were on the mark for Palace.

Wednesday Division 3

An excellent performance from Darragh Laffan proved decisive for Kurtz Wallopers as they came out on top against FC Coping Badly in a very tight. Laffan was instrumental in most of their good play and was on the scoresheet twice.

MP O’Sullivan produced a battling performance as they turned the tide against the Baggios. The Baggios dominated early proceedings and looked comfortable at 3-1. But the Cash and Carry boys led by man of the match Gavin Ahern never gave up and equalised through Jay Nixon. Colin Gurhy stole the points with 2 late goals for O’Sullivans.

A Dan Twomey hatrick for Dynamo Tonduff proved pivitol in their tie with Real Soso Bad. This game could have gone either way after Steve Riordain levelled for Real, direct from a corner kick to make it 2-2. But slick finishing from Twomey proved to be the difference.

Wednesday Division 2

The Cuban Priests continued their excellent start to the Footy leagues, as they won by a comfortable 6-1 scoreline. However the score flattered the Priests as this was a closer contest that the scoreline suggests as Jim Walsh and company fought hard for Douglas. Stephen O Donovan, who looks an excellent player was in tremendous form for the Priests and scored 4 times. The pick of which was a solo goal where he ran from deep in his own half, to calmly slot home.

CUH were too strong for Balaga Tonga and won comfortable 5-2. Cathal O Sullivan was man of the match and scored a hatrick, while Ivan Weir excellent finishing returned after a lean period in front of goal last season.

Jamie Owen scored a late equaliser for Hit or Miss against Nualight. This tie was end to end and finished 3-3. Kieran Buckley scored with a bullet like shot for Nualight’s 2^nd goal, but Owen’s leveller was deserved as Fiachra O Driscoll fought hardest for Hit or Miss.

Wednesday Division 1

Korona produced a total football display and maintain their 100% record,

As they beat the Celts 6-2. The Mahon Lads battled hard early on, but Korona showed patience and never stopped passing the ball and eventually wearing their opponents down. Kris Pawlik led the way for the Polish lads with 2 crisp finishes.

Last Season champions Racing Club got their campaign under way with a fine win over the Larrys. Fergal Lynch was excellent in defence for Racing and broke forward twice to get on the scoresheet. Peter Fitzamurice played up front for Racing and this move worked a treat as he scored 4 times.

The Larrys have some very skilful players in Eamonn Fitzgerald and Stephen Kenny, but lack organisation in defence and conceded some soft goals.

Far From Athletic produced the performance of the evening as they ran out 8-4 winners against the Tools. Darragh O Regan was tremendous for Far From and scored an impressive 5 times. Colin Hammond scored twice for 

The Tools, who were guilty of missed chances when the game was tight.
