QuoteSecond half began with the Town playing 4-4-1 with O'Sullivan up front on his own and here he came into his own. After 8, however, he picked up a yellow for diving. On twelve, he picked up the ball and ran past two Youth's defenders before deftly flicking it past Graham for 1-0 to the Town. The Town then played two banks of four and defied the Youths to break them down and unfortunately they rarely looked like doing so. Five minutes after scoring his first, O'Sullivan then latched onto the ball again in the Youth's half and clipped the outside of the post with another effort. Youths had plenty of possession at this time but too many off-sides and through balls which were too long or floated crosses which rarely threatened meant that scoring chances were rare. Midway through the half, the stronger technical players - Deano, Glen and Shane Nolan - came on in a triple substitution and improved things a bit. With fifteen to go, however, Crokey had to clear a Nkololo effort off the line. Only chance for Wexford in last ten was a snap shot which Bennion had to get down low to push away for a corner.
