Skryne 0-08 Dunsany 1-07

Official Report

The second game in windswept Duleek yesterday was the Junior championship between Skryne and neighbours Dunsany. In a very tight game the Reds lead at the break by 0-5 to 0-4 but the deciding score arrived very fortuitously midway through the second half when the Skryne defence were caught out in allowing a ball which seemed to be drifting wide go uncontested. The Dunsany forwards were more alert and from the resulting cross the ball finished in the net and with it went Skryne’s chances of victory.

The Blues were dealt a serious blow before a ball was kicked when the Seniors were forced into a change late in the first game due to a black card for Conor O’Brien meaning he was replaced by Aidan Tuite thus depriving the juniors of the services of the big midfielder. Newcomer Declan Mulvey was deemed unfit to play and then midway through the first half a serious injury to 2010 senior final man of the match Ian Davis diminished the scoring power of the team. Add to that a late injury to Allan Carty suggested the gods had forsaken the Blues for this game at least. Having said that Skryne had their chances to win the game even allowing for Dunsany shooting a far greater number of wides. Skryne did not use the wind advantage in the second half as well as they should have and with just a point between the sides late in the game missed a few scoring chances including a goal chance.

Skryne – Felim O’Rourke. Dermot Brennan, James Looby, Declan Morley. David Lynch, Martin Mulvaney, Darragh Campion. Paddy Doherty, David McGoldrick. John Morley (0-1), Allan Carty (0-4) Kevin O’Reilly (0-2). Neal Burke, Ian Davis, Conor Keogh (0-1).
