U17 Match Report Saturday 12th April 2008
SBYFL League
Result: St Marys FC 0 Carrick Rangers 2
Again St Mary's started off lethargically and within 2 minutes found themselves 1 - 0 down after some sloppy defensive work. From then on the match proved a struggle with Carrick working very hard to close down St Mary's who created several chances but were unable to take any with a typical example being Hackett heading down to Barr who fired just over the bar.
Second half continued but just as it seemed St Mary's might be grinding down the opposition another bout of hesitancy in the St Mary's defence allowed Carrick to snatch a second.
Despite Hackett moving forward to supplement the lively Michael O'Reilly and Kevin Meighan no-one could put the ball in the back of the net and Carrick finished off winners.
A timely reminder to St Mary's as the cup competition looms on Monday night against Bangor.
