U16 PREMIER DIVISION

Ballyraine 2 - 3 Letterkenny Rovers

Rovers were 1 down at half time and struggling to get settled into the game. The second half was much better and a great combination with Jack Riseley setting up Odhran Kelly who buried it in the net. Rovers second came from a long ball into the Ballyraine box, and Filip Duraj made it first to the ball in a 1v1 with the keeper. Filip took it and with the first touch dinked it over the head of the keeper into the net.

Rovers scored their third goal 66 mins in with an Odhran Kelly free kick just outside the 18yard box. Ballyraine kept the pressure on and brought the game back to a one goal game with 10mins remaining. Rovers held firm for the final minutes to close the game and claim the result.

Goalscorers for Rovers: Odhran Kelly x2, Filip Duraj
