PEIL FAOI 14/15:
We hosted John Mitchell’s GAA on Wednesday evening 6th September for the final round game of the central league. A lovely night for football and what turned out a very competitive game. A bright positive start saw our boys miss two early goal chances.
As the game settled Mitchels built up a lead of 8 points by mid way through the first half. Thankfully our boys picked of a few scores and the first half finished.
1.06 to 1.09
Early exchanges in the 2nd half saw our boys trade scores and eventually draw level.
But that was as good as the scoreboard would get for us. Mitchell’s settled into the half and pulled away towards the end with a final score line of
AS 3.10 to JM 3.15.
The two teams will have to do it all again next Wednesday September 13th in the semi final of the central league with John Mitchell’s with the home advantage.
Training continued over the weekend in preparation for this game and the fast approaching Lee Strand competition for our U14 age group on September 23rd. (Ger Hobbert)
