Rovers 14B's started their cup game off well, the Rovers keeper Davin Kelly was called into action after 20 minutes pulling off two great saves, but there was not much he could do about Arklow’s first goal. Rovers got straight back into it with Turlough Byrne & Kian Copeland testing the Arklow keeper with two great shots. Rovers were unlucky to go in at the break 3-0 down as yheir their efforts deserved more. Rovers came out after the break the stronger side with Sean O'Keefe & David Quinn both hitting the crossbar. Rovers made a few changes, James Cummins coming on for Turlough Byrne, Jack Barry for Steven Doyle and Justin Ivantes for Oscar Brogan. Rovers kept pushing and they got a goal back with James Cummins hitting the net. Rovers got caught on the break with about two minutes to go letting Arklow in again to score. The game ended 4-1 to Arklow. Best players on the day were James Grurrie & Max Hennessy. A Big thanks to Enda Lynch of NDA Construction for the sponsorship of the lads new gear, massive thanks Enda, your support is very much appreciated.
