U16s Supplementary Cup Result Ards Academy 3 Rathcoole 4

his was a game of 2 halves. Our boys were super from the word go, out of the blocks really quick some absolutely class pieces of football throughout. We shot into a 3 goal lead after just 20 mins with goals from Dean Craig Owen Green and new signing Dale Johnston. Congrats boys on great performance first half.

Second half though was a totally different story with the boys I think becoming too complacent and let Rathcoole back into the game shortly after the break. They got there second immediately after through a silly free kick.

We looked nervous from then on and Rathcoole equalised and to be honest the game was only going one way with the opposition grabbing the winner with 5 mins left.

A lesson we learn from in the future, look at the positives from the first half and move on.

Man of match Dale Johnston

Many Thanks Mark Green
