New York boys tame the Wolfhounds
The New York feile boys team showed true grit and determination as they produced a second half performance against a strong gale that will give great encouragement to the supporters and management of the team. The match finished 4-06 to 1-02 but the scoreline does not reflect the dogged attitude required to win this match displayed by the boys. With 6 points separating the teams at half time the New York boys had it all to do in the second half facing into a strong gale blowing right into their faces. A Ciaran Bennett goal near the interval had given New York a vital lead but now it seemed Limavady would take control given the strength of the wind. However great teams play their best football when it is needed most and that is exactly what this NY team did. Ronan Curry scythed through the Limavady defence and rifled a shot top corner to put some breathing space between the teams. Danger loomed for NY when the Limavady full forward found himself in space bearing down on goal but Pat Guerin was equal to the task and made a great save. Brian Kernan was very unlucky to only come away with a point after his effort hit the crossbar and went over but he was then very fortunate later on when his high effort ended up in the back of the Limavady net after it bounced over the keeper. Murphy in defence showed great bravery when his block from the Limavady corner forward launched the turnover which ended up leading to NY’s 4th goal a real gem from Ryan Traynor.
