Thursday
Division 3
Last
Seasons whipping boys Balaga Tongo find themselves joint top of
division 3 after 3 weeks of games. They have secured 9 points out of
9 with 3 excellent wins and are only behind the Sons of Pitches on
goal difference, who have also made an excellent start and look
determined to atone for narrowly missing out on the title for the
last 2 seasons.
Balaga
had Josh King and Eoghan Kennedy in superb form last week in their
4-2 win over Whitfords. An excellent goal, a volley from 15 yards by
Kennedy was the games highlight, but Balaga seemed to have learned
from their time spent at the bottom of the table in the last few
seasons and have tightened up their defence this Summer.
Sons
of Pitches are early season favourites after their excellent start,
and have Michael Deasy and Colin Keane in great form. Alan O Sullivan
scored a hatrick for them last week in their dismantling of Men Utd.
The Lemmons were being out played by the Nobodys in a first half that
ended 0-0. But a beautiful taken goal by Brian Cahill mid way through
the 2nd half opened the floodgates for the Lemmons who
went on to win easily. Justin Banks also played well for the Lemmons
while the Sinnott brothers Peter and Steve tried hardest for the
Nobodys.
Thursday
Division 2
“The
Alan Jordan Memorial Cup”
The
Boca Seniors have set the early pace in this division with 2 wins and
a draw from 3 games. Closely followed by Unreal Madrid who are a
point behind. These 2 sides look like the best 2 teams at the moment,
but the Dragons are not far behind and should be there or there
abouts come the business end of the season. Omer Mercier dominated
the midfield for Unreal Madrid in their 4-0 over the Chancers, with
Ronan Sherman showing his prowess in front of goal with 2 superbly
taken goals.
John
Browne was Bocas Seniors most influential player as they beat Mount
Oval 3-1. The Oval side are lacking consistency in their line up
which is affecting their rhythm and find themselves at the bottom of
the table.
Thursday
Division 1
The
Kids continue to dominate these leagues, having switched from
Wednesdays to Thursdays nights. They find themselves joint top with
Oxford International who have also made an impressive to the Summer
campaign.
The
Kids had a 4-1 win over Red Shirts and had the very skilful Terry O
Connell in excellent form.
Oxford
Intl had an excellent win over last seasons champions EZY FC, giving
the Ezy lads a lesson in finishing, with goals from Jason Byrne 3,
Conor Hawes 2, Joe Kinsella 2, and Colin Coveney 2.
This
division at the moment seems like it might be between these 2 side
for honours.
The
Portuguese boys Joga Bonito with a couple of Irish lads thrown in,
had a wonderful 7-6 win over Los Pisteroles who are mostly made up of
EMC employees. The ever reliable Paulo Santos scoring a a hatrick
along with a very impressive display from Des Mallon in their
midfield who also scored a hatrick. Barry Collins and Ken O Connor
were best for Los Pisteroles who were a bit unlucky not to get
something from the game having come from 4-1 down at half time.
