Newtown went 1-0 up through Ray Quigley. Ray played a ball over the top for Cheeky but the keeper ran out and the ball bounced over his head and straight into the net. The rest of the 1st half was poor but Olympic had a super chance to level with Jay Regan blasting over from 3 yards. 2nd half saw Olympic trying to up the pace but it only looked like Newtown would score which they did through Cheeky about 10mins in. Eamonn O' Neill then hit a post as Newtown were strolling. Then Newtown made 3 subs with about 30mins left and from here Olympic dominated until the end. Albert Murphy gave Olympic a lifeline with 20 to go. A corner came in which Newtown headed away only for Albert to give a penalty for what god only knows:confused: Terry Duggan missed the resulting spot kick (good save from skinny). Olympic kept going however and Richie got one back with a superb finish into the top left corner. However that was the last real chance of the game bar a few long range efforts from both teams.Quote:
