A.U.L. 2A result.
Killowen 1 Millstreet Celtic 2
Millstreet left it late but got the 3 points and probably deserved to get the win as they dominated for long periods of the game. We were slow out of the blocks and paid the price as we went behind early on from a situation that could have been easily prevented. We only got going in the final 20 minutes of the first half and got the equaliser just before the interval courtesy of a sweetly struck free kick from the edge of the area. We missed a great opportunity to take the lead early in the 2nd half and aside from a few long range efforts that was as good as it got for us. Millstreet took over and we were camped in our own half for long periods. They hit the bar, had shots blocked in the goalmouth and forced our keeper into action far too often. We survived the onslaught until the 89th minute when they cut us open down the middle and worked the ball into the area before scoring with a neat finish from close range. A bad blow for us but we have to learn from our mistakes. Should be an interesting battle ahead between Rylane, Millstreet and Crescent for the title in 2A.
