Cutters v Barely Athletic
Second place Cutters left it late to find the crucial goal to give them a huge win vs Barely Athletic and keep the pressure on Team Lightning at the top of the table.
Cutters battered Barely Athletic's defence for the full hour with chances from Pauric Hession, Colm Galvin, Michael Clancy and Aidan Moriarty testing their Keeper and hitting the crossbar.
Athletic had chances on the break throughout the match while Cutters pushed forward, they came very close with Jeff Ryan scampering back clearing the ball before crossing the goal line.
With just a few minutes to go at 0-0 Cutters chances of staying in the race for the league were looking all but gone, until Aidan Moriarty stepped upto the plate, Paul Barry started the attack from the heart of their defence breaking through to midfield passing the ball to Michael Clancy who carried it another few yards onto Colm Galvin who slipped the ball through to Aidan blasting it to the back of the net giving the Athletic Keeper no chance.
Cutters put the ball into the river for the remainder of the match sealing the 1-0 win.
