Footy Report 21^st Feb

Thursday Div 1

Drink Team FC, a team made up of all Polish nationals, were back to their best after their recent defeat to EZY FC. They easily dispatched Footy newcomers, Kitteringham FC 9-2.

Kitteringham started the game with the intention to play deep and play on the counter, but conceded 2 first half goals. The 2^nd half opened up for the Polish boys and they romped to victory. Pawel Pciak was most best for the winners who eagerly anticipated clash with table toppers EZY is scheduled for March 28^th. Other Footy newcomers Oxford are proving to be an excellent team and are very worthy of being in 3^rd place in division 1. Joe Kinsella and Conor Hawes were in top form for Oxford who cruised to victory over Far From Athletic. They may well have a say in where the title ends up as are quickly proving that they are capable of between both teams above them.

The reliable poacher Paulo Santos scored a brace for the Portuguese outfit OS Naventages as they won a tight battle with the All Blacks. Paul Williamson scored with a great strike for the All Blacks to give them hope with mid way through the 2^nd half, but OS held on for the 3 points.

Thursday Div 2

A 6 man Apple team fought hard against the Mount Oval Bar, but just came up short losing by the odd goal. Podge O Connell was best for Mount Oval and scored a hatrick. Oval have a game in hand against Cork Celtic, and a win for either of these sides will push them amoung the leaders.

Celtic also won 3-2 in an excellent game against the Chancers. The highlight of this game being a great back healed goal from Jason O Connell for the Chancers to equalise at 2-2, but James Crowley came up with the winner for Celtic.

Table toppers the Net Busters got back to winning ways with a 7-3 victory over O'Higgins FC. Stephen Stromsoe with a hatrick and man of the match Paul Sexton with two goals set them on their way.

The Dragons dug out another 3 points and stay level on points with the leaders after a great victory against the improving Jager Bombers. Shaun Jordan scored this crucial winner for the Dragons who did very well to come from behind.

This division will be hard to call with all teams capable of beating each other on their day and should go down to the wire.

Thursday Div 3

The Sons Of Pitches stay 2 points clear after an impressive 4-0 victory over the Flying Column. James O Loughlin gave an excellent display in front of goal with some clinical finishing scoring 3 times.The scoreline did not reflect how the game went as the Column were well in this game and worked very hard but O'Loughlin proving to be the difference between the 2 sides.

JT Specials stay in 2nd spot after their emphatic 6-1 win over the Whitfords. Dan Hegarty again showing he is a handful for any defence scoring a hatrick, while Rob Carppenter pulled all the strings in JT's midfield.

Men Utd had too much in the tank for Balaga Tongo. Padraig McGovern scoring 5 times for Utd with one individual solo effort worthy of special mention. Sean O Connor, who looks an excellent player, was also in top form for Men Utd, who finally seem to be settling in to some decent form and might well be in the mix at the top end of the table in April
