Our youths A team travelled to Ballygannon yesterday afternoon to take on Avonmore in the youths league and they kept their 100% start intact recording a fine 4-2 win. The lads started brightly and were creating some good chances but went behind from a penalty on thirty minutes. It wasn’t long before Rovers drew level after good work from Sam Christie found Charlie Czwalina and the striker made no mistake from eighteen yards to level matters. Alex Sinnott put Rovers 2-1 up with a header from a fine corner from captain Lorcan Sinnott. The second half saw Rovers again start brightly and with the wind at their advantage started piling the pressure on the Avonmore goal. Sam Christie went close twice along with Lee Brown. The third goal was a peach from centre back Jack Macklin, he lobbed the keeper from his own half to give Rovers a two goal cushion. Rovers put the game to bed when Lorcan Sinnott broke from midfield beating four players before rifling to the bottom corner. Avonmore did pull a goal back and again Rovers had chances from Brandon Battams and Ben Doyle but the home keeper made two brilliant saves. A good performance from the whole panel today in windy conditions and on a heavy pitch. Alex Sinnott, Alex Earls and Keelan Darcy were stand out performers on the day.
