Sandyhill 1-1 Kilbarrack |
Sandyhill 1-1 Kilbarrack
Great performance by the senior side today with a fully justified equalizer against kilbarrick in Stoppage time. We dominated the game and the lads certianly have their mojo back. We played some fantastic football and the Kilbarrick keeper had to pull off a number of saves to keep them in the game. The lads are a a credit to the club for putting some poor recent performances behind and come back with their heads held high.
