Clones Town 1-3 RVR FT
Yeah, but can they do it on a cold Sunday afternoon in Clones? You bet we can! Took us 10 mins to get going but after that the Clones goal lead a charmed life. Their keeper made a series of fine stops to keep us at bay and at the other end we had to stay switched on from a bombardment of free's and corners into the box. With HT looming, Clones took the lead with a neat volley. We upped the ante in the 2nd half & on came Bren, Colly & Sean Boyd. On 60 mins, the rampaging Philly McCabe popped up with a right foot swinger, that went in off the underside of the bar. Most of 150 or so in attendance, had extra time in their thoughts but not Sean Boyd. The young frontman remained ice cold in the box, turning and drilling home a 90th minute peach to send the away fans bat shit crazy. Mark O'Brien then with the clock ticking down, drove straight for the Clones back line & was upended in the box. No doubt about the award of the peno & Dano Murphy tuck it away to send us into the last 16 of the FAI Junior cup
