CYFC u15’s 0-2 Limavady u15’s
Last Friday evening the Whites travelled to Scroggy Road 3G to face Limavady in a NL fixture.
Buoyed by the fantastic performance and result over Ballymena Academy in the NIBFA Cup the previous week, the young sizzlers started brightly with Mulgrew going close with two efforts at the back post after good work from Talbot and McCrory. Limavady came more into the game buoyed by Cookstown’s missed chances and increasingly sloppy play. Before halftime they capitalised on two defensive errors to roar into a two goal lead.
Donnelly, McElhatton and Ferson replaced Patterson, Talbot and Price to try to get Cookstown back into the game. A rare passage of good play between McCrory, Kelso and McElhatton delivered another opportunity for Mulgrew who snatched at his chance with the keeper to beat. Burton also had a shot from distance well saved.
Limavady kept going and struck the woodwork twice before the final whistle to run out winners.
TEAM: B. Patterson, E. Irwin, H. McKenzie, J. Burton, J. Price, C. McCrory, G. Russo, I. Kelso, B. Mulgrew, J. Patterson, C. Talbot, J. Donnelly, J. Ferson, A. McElhatton.
