East Cork U12 League Semi-Final
Erins Own 1-7 Bride Rovers 1-3
Our U12s lost out in a tight match at Caherlag last Monday night in the East Cork league semi-final. Erins Own enjoyed the greater possession for much of the match but our backs and goalkeeper Anna Murray were excellent in repelling the opposition attacks. Trailing by a goal entering the final stages, we finished very strongly and could have had 2-2 in the closing minutes with a bit more luck. It was still a good performance and we now look forward to a B league final and a county championship match against Dromtarriffe.
