Munster Junior Cup Peake Villa 3 - 2 Glengoole Utd
Peake Villa hosted Glengoole in the Cup Sunday morning and advanced to round 3 with a hard fought win in a game that was highly entertaining. Villa started well playing some good passing football. They took the lead on 11 minutes when for the second week in a row Pippy Carroll rose the highest to header the ball into the top corner following on from his header the week before away to Celtic in the FAI Junior Cup. Villa could have doubled their lead on the 25th minute when Matthew McKevitt came close hitting the post. Glengoole nearly got level just before the break when a good save by Stephen Ryan in the Villa goal fell to Dan Rafter who should have scored. 1-0 at the break.
Glengoole came into the game more in the second half and equalised in the 52nd minute from a great strike by Michael Rafter. Villa made a couple of changes in the 60th minute bringing on Dale Lougnane and Darren McGuire. The changes worked when McGuire headed Villa back in front on the 66th minute. Glengoole wouldn't go away and made it 2-2 in the 76th minute when a ball that should have been cleared ran through to Dan Rafter who made no mistake. To Villa's credit they kept at it and it was the other substitute Dale Lougnane who won the game when he came in from the wing and fired into the bottom corner on the 81st minute. Another great win in the Cup for this young Villa team who under the guidance of James O Sullivan and Jody Brolin are in fine form at the moment.
Third Division League Peake Villa B 6 - 0 Bansha Celtic B
Another big performance from Peake Villa B as they took on Bansha Celtic at home. Goals from Damo Walczak and Davie Mahoney in the 14th and 16th minutes was no more than Villa deserved. David Burke scored two more goals before half time to make it 4-0 at the break.
Christy Burke made it 5-0 in the 53rd minute and David Burke got his hatrick scoring straight from a free kick. The match finished 6-0 to villa. Great team performance from the lads with the defence rock solid all day.
