At start of the second half we went all out to equalise but again Youghal somehow got their second goal. From there on in we had Youghal stuck in their box to equal. With a couple of charges and all the pressure. We finally broke down Youghal’s defence. With a great goal from Andy to put us back in contension with 8mins left. We quickly got our second goal when Billy turned their keeper to equal the game.

Carrig U15’s were at home to Carrigaline on Sunday morning . On league standings this was a game the home side should have had no problem winning and it looked like they would.

The second half was much the same and Carrig continued to take the game to the visitors. 20 minutes into the half after relentless pressure they were rewarded with a penalty but Carrigaline’s keeper made a good save.

Carrigtwohill United 2 Passage United 2. Passage win on penalties.
Scorers – Billy Manning  John Hyde.

Carrigtwohill exited the Local Cup after penalties following a very entertaining 2-2 draw to high flying first division Passage on Tuesday evening at Ballyadam. Carrig were up against a very strong Passage side in this cup tie. The visitors had a few good chances early in the game as would be expected from a team 3 divisions higher in the leagues but Carrig showed they were up for the challenge and showed great spirit to get back into the game.  Carrig went a goal behind from corner after 25 minutes as Passage edged the midfield exchanges. The home side to their credit didn’t  drop their heads and created some good chances with Billy Manning and Philip Dorgan both going close to scoring. Against the run of play Passage broke down the left wing and scored their second goal just before half time and give Carrig a difficult task in the second half.

The home side showed great belief in the second half and some great performances in particular by Shane Waters got back into the game. Darragh McCann and Kevin Coady were solid at the back Passage didn’t get a chance in the second half. Liam McCarthy made some great clearances and it was a great ball from McCarthy that set Billy Manning up to score with a volley from the edge of the box. Carrig worked hard all over the pitch and Passage struggled to keep with them. With 10 minutes remaining David Grimes was fouled after a good run down the right wind and John Hyde scored a great goal from the free kick out on the wing. Carrig continued to dominate the final 10 minutes of the game could not get the the winner they would have deserved and the game went to extra time.  Both teams had given their all and extra time was uneventful with both defences doing well but Carrig were denied a clear penalty with only 2 minutes of the extra time on the clock and the game then went to a penalty shoot out. Passage showed a little more experience and won 3-1 on penalties. This was a fantastic team performance from the Carrig lads in a game that few gave them much of a chance.

League v Greenwood in Leeds Park on Sunday 13th April 2014
Carrigtwohill United 1 Greenwood 2
Scorer – David Grimes.

Carrig U15’s were up against Greenwood on Sunday morning in the League at Ballyadam. After a great performance and being held to a draw by top of the table Cobh a week earlier another big performance was expected from the home side in this game. However from the kick off Carrig struggled to get into the game and a few early nervous exchanges seemed to encourage Greenwood and allowed them to dictate most of the first half even though they failed to make a break through thanks to some stubborn defending from the home defence. Carrig were happy to get to the  break 0 – 0.

Carrig were a different side in the second half winning most of the exchanges in midfield. They were rewarded for their efforts after 10 minutes when Brendan Towmey cut through the middle and put a great ball into the path of Philip Dorgan but his shot was pushed away by Greenwoods keeper to David Grimes who scored from the edge of the box. Greenwood slowly got back into the game and a well taken goal had them level with 20 minutes to go. The remainder of the game was very open and twice Carrig came close to taking the lead again. But the final twist came at the other end of the pitch with less than 5 minutes remaining when Greenwood scored the winner with a lucky toe-poke to the net as Carrig were slow to clear their lines.

Man of the Match – Kevin Coady

League v Leeds in Leeds Park on Saturday 29th March 2014
Leeds 0 Carrigtwohill United 3
Scorers – Philip Dorgan  Brendan Twomey  David Grimes.

Carrigtwohill Utd recorded a great win on Saturday morning against Leeds at Leeds Park. Carrig overcame the challenge of a very physical Leeds side in this action packed contest. As the game started the rain came down and made the conditions very difficult for the rest of the game. Both sides created some good early chances but Carrig shaded the first half. Carrig were strong in defence and were best served by Kevin Coady and Darragh McCann in the centre and Liam McCarthy and Sean Mackey on the wings driving forward at every opportunity. With ten minutes to go in the first half McCarthy hit a great ball over the home defence and Philip Dorgan pounced to head home and put Carrig one up. The visitors were unlucky not to be two up just before the break after a great move on the wing, Dylan McCann played a great one- two with Brendan Twomey before putting a great cross into the box.

Carrigtwohill were quick off the mark and started the second half in great style with Brendan Twomey testing the home defence every time he had the ball. After another good attack from Twomey Carrig were awarded a corner, Dylan McCann put a great ball into the box for Twomey to score and make it 2-0 with half an hour to go. Leeds came back into the game and had a some good possession but never really threatened Ben O’Leary’s goal. Carrig not happy with a two goal advantage drove on in search of another and brought the best out of Leeds keeper who made a couple of good saves. Shane Waters came on for Philip Dorgan and kept the home defence busy. The momentum was with Carrig and they were relentless in their search of a third goal to kill off the game and it came after a great move on the right wing, Billy Manning put Twomey clear down the wing and his cross to the front post was met by Waters and Leeds keeper but the ball broke loose and David Grimes scored Carrig’s third goal. To their credit Leeds never gave up and tried hard in the last ten minutes to get a consolation goal but Carrig easily dealt with everything they threw at them. This was a great team performance and Carrig were worth their three goal advantage in what was an important win for them to get back in contention for league honours.

Man of the Match – Sean Mackey

Carrig shaded an action packed first half with a very strong performance from the home defence in difficult conditions. Ben O’Leary made a couple of good saves while Darragh McCann and Kevin Coady were as usual solid at the centre of defence. Shane Waters and Liam McCarthy cleared everything that came their way and started many a good move forward but the half finished 0-0.

There was no let up in excitement in the second half. Carrig started well and dominated the early exchanges with Billy Manning and John Hyde controlling midfield but against the run of play Cobh scored after a mistake on the edge of the box by the home defence. But to their credit Carrig played some great football to get back into the game. Brendan Twomey and Dylan McCann were a constant threat going forward both linked well with the front two of Philip Dorgan and David Grimes who held the ball up well and kept the  visitors defence busy. Carrig equalised after another well taken corner from Dylan McCann was headed against the post by Darragh McCann and Grimes put the rebound back across the goal for Twomey to score. Carrig made two changes and brought on Sean Mackey and James Doyle and continued to push for a winner but Cobh’s keeper kept them out. This was a great team performance and deserved a win.

Then Darragh McCann scored his second goal of the game from a penalty to make it 5 – 3 to Leeds after Liam Gosnell was taken down in the box.
