Presidents Cup 9th Feb 2019
Dundalk win 2-1. They were very good in the first half though both their goals came from City mistakes.
Second half we were much better but created little. Possoibly because Dundalk decided to keep it tighter and let us have the ball a bit more. Kevin O'Connor came on as a sub in midfield and his first touch was a cracking free kick into the top corner in front of the shed.
I'd like to personally thank UCD for Daire O'Connor. Hes a gem of a player and I can't wait to see him play again.
I think they will win the league by a significant margin this year unless their managerial situation leads to a meltdown which is unlikely. I think we will be perfectly fine this season, we have some work to do defensively but Im confident we'll sort that, and few teams have the attacking talent to punish us that Dundalk do. I don't think we'll be competing for the league but I'm confident we'll qualify for Europe in 2020 again.
