Last Minute Win For The Lemons



Colin Newman was the hero for The Lemons when he scored a great last minute winner against The Could Have Beens. Early in the second half The Could have Beens were in control and held a 4-2 lead. Paulo Santos was playing very well up front and and was involved in all of The Could Have Beens best moves. He also scored twice and assisted in the goals scored by Derek O Brien and Brian Hennessey. However the last three goals were scored by The Lemons. Peter O Leary scored twice to get them on level terms and then Newman scored the winner in the last minute.
The Crossbarry, Sliabh na mBan match was another fabulous high scoring encounter. The lead was held by both teams a number of times before Sliabh na mBan finally won 8-6. Erik Cotter and Ronan O sullivan scored four each for Sliabh while Colin Walsh scored three for Crossbarry.
The Kids were always in control in their game against Deportivo. Oisin McGrath, Brian Wise and David McCarthy all scored two for the winners while Terry McKenzie scored a couple for Deportivo. The final score was 7-4 in favour of The Kids.
The PSV goalkeeper Dylan Sheridan was the MVP in the PSV, ABCDE FC showdown. He held ABCDE at bay with a string of top class saves. At the other end Kevin Wilmot(2), Damien O Leary and Stephen O Reilly scored for the Cobh lads while Conor Barry, Diarmuid Ring and Timmy Noonan responded for ABCDE in a match that PSV won 4-3.

Voxpro did AC Standard a huge favour last week when they defeated the then league toppers Racing Returns. This week they succombed to a 5-0 defeat to AC to leave AC sitting pretty on goal difference at the top of the table. Niall Gannon was dominant in defence for AC while Tim O Conner put in a great innings up front for the winners while also helping himself to a couple of goals.
Adam Cambridge was superb for The Adams Family when they defeated Olympiakos 4-3. He also scored three goals. Ian Casey notched a brace for The Kerry Greeks.
At halftime it looked like Balaga Tongo were going to deprive Racing returns of the league title. They were playing a smart counter attacking game and were one up thanks to a Paul Clarke goal. However the tide changed in the second half, and inspired by Peadar Horgan, Racing recovered and eventually won 4-2 to keep level on points with AC.

A superb volley by Jodi Synott was the highlight of The Individuals, Dynamo Tonduff encounter. Darren Mccarthy was unstoppable for Tonduff and scored 4 in their 4-3 win.
