It was on the road today for the guys who made the away trip to Lusk to play the strongest team in our division Round Towers at their home ground coincidentally named Thomas Ashe Park!! The guys came flying out of the traps and raced into a very early lead with a well worked goal. It was nip and tuck throughout the whole first half with both teams putting on a decent display for the onlookers of both sides with some fantastic football played. Second half we started slow which allowed Round Towers to chalk up a couple of scores before we found our feet. The guys battled with pride throughout the whole second half and never gave up the fight driving eachother on to the final whistle. Thomas Ashe will take a lot from this game and we rue our opportunity’s today both in front of goal and been sloppy in possession as it could have been a lot tighter than the Scoreline suggested. The spirit and never say die attitude of the team is a testament to the group of players and management. Special mention to our stand in goalkeeper Ryan who never looked out of place and produced some fantastic saves and also both Harry and Clayton who were powerful in the engine room in midfield and Sean for some outstanding defence. Gracious sportsmanship shown by all Thomas Ashe at the final whistle. We go again training on Monday.
