[ Northside 2- Moyross C 2 ]
Northside played out a draw against a strong Moyross team. Going down two 2-0 early in the match it looked a tough task to get anything out of this game.
However, the TEAM SPIRIT and work rate and friendship of this young side to fight for each other shone through as they were rewarded with a well deserved draw through a brace from the clinical Luke Brosnihan - adding to his impressive tally so far this season.
Jordan Franklin led the comeback like something out of 300[ the movie ]- making searing runs to try and get one back - and was rewarded 5 minutes before half time with a well delivered ball for the on running Luke Brosnihan who duly obliged with a superb finish to the back of the Moyross Net.
Throughout the second half we grew more and more into the game and had strong performance form Sean Toomey who was first to the ball and one some important frees for his team aswell and covering every blade of grass.
Also the introduction of Anthony Kyole brought a renewed energy and fighting spirit that lifted his team mates.
Leon Tobin was first to every ball and this helped to settle the team and help improve confidence - with sweeping tacking / clearances and interceptions.
Also, Dylan Franklin player some lovely balls through the lines with Jamie Hogan and Young Toomey. Anthony Byrnes also tried hard throughout until the introduction of the experienced a thomas hogan who brought a real Composure to the team.
Jake Murphy gave it his also and played in through an injury to help his team mates claw back from near defeat.
Dylan a Bourke also show grit and helped the Northside group push on with further chances that were not too far away- a lovely free kick by dylan Franklin went close. Christopher Guerin tried hard also throughout in Goals and linked well with the defence.
Those also to play well were Anthony Byrnes, Wayne Fitzgerald , Kian Ryan , Leon Daly, Luke Oshea.
Finally, with great effort and determination Northside we’re rewarded for their fighting spirit on 89 minutes when the never say attitude of Captain Jordan Franklin was rewarded when he assisted the winner for the clever Luke Brosnihan. Our attention now turns to an away fixture next Thursday night against Lough Derg kick off 6.30pm.
