Wicklow Rovers' first team made a triumphant return to action yesterday evening, overcoming a halftime deficit to secure a 3-1 victory against Greystones United at Whitegates.

The match, marking the restart of the season after the summer break, began with Greystones taking an early lead, putting the Rovers on the back foot. Despite some promising attacking moves, Wicklow couldn't find an equalizer before the halftime whistle.

The second half, however, saw a rejuvenated Rovers side take the field, spurred on by the fantastic support from the home crowd. Their persistence paid off in the 60th minute when Osamma slotted home to level the scores. The momentum had shifted, and Wicklow, driven by their fans, continued to press forward.

Lorcan Sinnott, recently named the WDFL Premier League Young Player of the Year, emerged as the hero of the night, first scoring a brilliant goal in the 70th minute to put Rovers in the lead. He then sealed the victory with a confidently taken penalty in the 84th minute, sending the home crowd into raptures.

It was a thrilling comeback win that showcased the team's resilience and determination. A massive thank you to all the supporters who turned up in droves – your energy truly pushed the team on to victory! We'd also like to thank the travelling Greystones side for a great game and wish them the best for the rest of the season.
