Under 15's lose out narrowly in East Cork Final
09/03/2010
On Sunday last, Carraig's under 15 Footballers faced Aghada in the East Cork U15 B Football Championship final. A pulsating tie saw Aghada run out winners by a narrow margin, 1-07 to 0-07. Despite conceding two early points, Carraig dominated the first half, with John Forde and Eoin O'Keeffe prominent in midfield, Sean O'Sullivan leading the defence and Oisin Crowley causing problems in attack. A number of good scoring chances went abegging howwever and at half time the sides were level 0-04 each. Aghada took an early lead in the second half and after a sustained period of pressure, they broke through for the games only goal, ten minutes into the half, to leave them 1-05 to 0-04 up. Carraig were not about to lie down and only a top class save from the Aghada goalkeeper kept out John Forde's excellent shot soon afterwards, which deserved to raise a green flag. Carraig added on two points as they pressed for the crucial scores that would bring them level, but some near misses left Aghada off the hook. Aghada added further points late on to stretch their lead and a late Carraig point was not enough as Carraig lost out narrowly in the end.
Hard luck to the team and their mentors, the year is young yet and if the effort and commitment on show last Sunday is anything to go by, this team will take some stopping later in the season at Under 16 and Under 14 level.
