Our WDFL C team played Coolboy Rangers in the Division 3 today at the Coolboy Sports Grounds. Coolboy took an early lead after a quick counterattack. At the midway point of the first half, Coolboy got in again and hit the post which was followed up to tap into an empty net to make it 2-0. Rovers came back into the game and saw an effort cleared off the line with an acrobatic kick. In the second half, Rovers started to take the ascendancy in the game, and on the hour mark, Liam Kavanagh played Shane Lincoln in and Shane produced an excellent finish over the goalkeeper to make it 2-1. Ten minutes later Liam Kavanagh delivered in a wonderful free kick which beat everybody and nestled into the far right corner to make it 2-2. Rovers were well on top and were pushing on now to win the game. With ten minutes to play, Coolboy scored a wonder goal from 25 yards out, which hit the crossbar and went over the line, nothing Euan Snell could do about it. Coolboy saw out the last ten minutes to win 3-2. A disappointing result for the lads, but a positive showing in the second half to build on for the next game.
