Not really tough on saints 2 years in a row. That's how cup football goes. If saints deserved to win I would say that it would have been tough. But that wasn't so. A great game of football, in lovely conditions. Sun was shining and the pitch look well in Thurles. It was a tit for tat game, no side was giving much away. Saints had O'Sullivan back in the goals, but saints don't look the team they used to be, a lot of young players venturing into their squad these days and it showed yesterday. Finnian has his Peake outfit looking good and they deserved the win, it was hard fought right to the end. It should have been more than 1-0 near the end of the game and peake squandered changes when saints pushed for an equalizer and were down to 10 men. Back to the drawing board for saints, and into the next round for Peake. Two wins by Peake over Saints in the last few weeks has to say something for Finnians Thurles outfit this year and it could make for an interesting season ahead in both the league and cup games. Well done Peake.
