Our u13 Boys Blue Team secured the 3pts vs Corofin Harps on a hot Friday afternoon in Cragg.
There was a lively start to the game with early chances falling to Gareth and Luke, with the Corofin keeper and the post keeping the game scoreless. Eventually Tullas Clayton O Toole broke the deadlock with a long range effort from the right. Corofin pushed hard for an equaliser and after a few chances and some great saves from Sean, eventually, managed to score.
With the score level at half time the Tulla lads were asked to dig deep in the second half. The game ebbed and flowed but eventually Tulla began to get the better of the chances again and after some neat work down the wing and a good cross from Weyinmi, the ball fell in front of Finn O’Driscoll, who hit a screamer from just outside the box that nestled on the corner of the net.
Corofin went hard for another equaliser, but Cian, Mikey, Lorcan and Conan were warriors at the back, winning alot of ball and feeding Ben, Conor and Patrick in the middle, who were always a threat going forward. Well done to both teams for an enthralling encounter on a hot evening.
