Wednesday Division 3
Dave Murphy was in scintillating form for FC Horseshoe when
they defeated new team Goal Diggers 3-2 in a thrilling encounter. The Diggers
got off to a good start and dominated both possession and chances early in the
game. They were rewarded when Jeff Abbott scored a fine goal. However FC Horshoe
always looked dangerous. When Dave Murphy collected a poor clearance about
twenty yards out with his back to the goal he didn’t seem to have many options
but then while turning he unleashed a rocket that found the right hand side of
the net for the goal of the evening. Soon afterwards John Duggan, who was
outstanding for the Diggers, restored their advantage, only for Dave Murphy to
peg them back to 2-2 with his second. The game was on a knife edge entering the
final stages, but once again it was Dave Murphy who came up with the goods when
he scored his third and the winner with another great goal.
The Individuals got off to a great start with an emphatic
win against The Kopites. This was a high scoring affair with both forward lines
on top. Luckily for The Individuals, almost everything that they threw at The
Kopites seemed to find the net. Jurgen was their top scorer with four goals,
but Joady Synott and Shane Dwyer weren’t far behind with three apiece.
Rosies started this season in the same mould as they
finished their previous – in winning fashion. They defeated a fancied Could
have Beens side 8-4. Gavin Kelly was their main man with four goals. However
the goal of the match was scored by Lucas in true Brazilian style as he danced
through the heart of the Rosies defence and slotted the ball wide of the
keeper.
FC Coping look like they will be contenders this season
after producing a very strong performance against new team The Best Team. It
took The Best Team a while to get going as this was their first time playing
together and by half time they were 4-0 down. However they improved hugely in
the second half with the final score being 5-2.
Wednesday Division 2
The Uwansome, Crystal Eagle encounter was a thriller. With
the score tied at 2 goals a piece Ian Finn scored an outstanding long range
goal to seal victory for Uwansome. Eoghan O Sullivan notched a brace for
Crystal eagle while Brian McEvoy and Ronan Carroll were also on the score sheet
for Uwansome.
Ross kiely put in an all-star performance for Rota Link in
their impressive 4-3 win against Boca juniors. The high light of his
performance was a delicate dink over the keeper for his second goal. Michael
Homan and keith McGrath scored the other Rota Link goals while Joe McAuliffe(2)
and Erik Cotter scored for Boca Juniors.
Acton Stanley are the early favourites for this division
after their 9-4 win against a strong CUH side. In Wayne Cotter, they have an
outstanding player who scored an incredible six goals. Philip Sweetman(2) and
Andrew Daunt scored their other goals. Kevin Heelan(2), Kevin O Flynn and Liam
Hennessy scored for CUH.
Wednesday Division 1
Pundit Arena were a little too strong for a gallant AC
Standard in a hard fought contest which Pundit Arena won 3-1. The pick of their
goals was a twenty yard bullet of a free kick scored by Kevin Kidney. Ed Noonan
and Richard Barrett scored the other Pundits goals while Paul Kilcoyne scored
for AC Standard.
Schuff began life in Division 1 with a great 7-2 win against
new team Bull In The Mud. It took Bull a while to settle as this was their
first footy match. Brendan Buckley scored three for Schuff while Andrew Cowpar
scored four. Sean Noonan and Richard Schoonbaret responded for Bull In The Mud
The Kids started their campaign with an 8-2 win against
Olympiakos. Man of the match Kevin Murphy was the dominant player on view while
Colin Hammond scored three fine goals for The kids. Michael Whyte scored a
brace for Olympiakos.
