AUL Mullion Cup
18 May 2008
Castleknock Celtic 4
Quarryvale 2
"The Treble is on"
Celtic need just 2 points from their last 2 games to
clinch their 3rd successive league title. They are
already in the AUL Complex Cup Final on Sunday, 25th at
3pm, and they qualified for the Mullion Cup semi-final
with this win over Quarryvale, to complete a double over
the Southsiders in four days. They face the same side in
the league on Tuesday, 20th May, in Porterstown.
So the TREBLE is definitely still on.
Today they slipped behind early on, before Neil Ahearne
got his second in 4 days with a lovely volley over the
keeper. But Celtic fell behind again.
However, John Dunne brought them onto level terms before
the break. Half-time 2-2.
The second half very much belonged to Celtic. Andy
Weldon's header put them ahead for the first time.
But the best was kept till last, when Shane Murphy
worked his magic. Weah had been denied by the
Quarryvale keeper, but the ball came to Shane about 40
yards out, and he hit a half volley to the net. Superb.
Full time 4-2 to Celtic. |
