The 1st XI won 5 – 0 at Wandgas Sports in the League, largely thanks to a blistering first half display which saw them 4 – 0 up at the interval thanks to a terrific Hatrick from Ruts MOTM Chris Beard and a decent lob from Graham Rolfe.
The Ruts added a further goal from Billy Liffen in the second half to complete a solid result. Thanks to Big Stephen Asomaning for ably stepping up from the 2nd XI in the sticks until further notice.
Crazy incident of the day – naming 3 subs, using 2 and losing a player to injury with 10 minutes to go. Where is the 3rd Sub? he had been in the Bar all game!, hence we played the game out with 10 men.
The 3rd XI secured a most welcome 3 – 2 victory at Diaspora Sports in the League thanks to a Simon Minihane brace and a strike from Richard Edmonds.
The 4th XI suffered Cup Semi Final agony against NPL at Poplar Road as they suffered a defeat AET on penalties after their Joe Hankin Cup match finished at 2 – 2.. Scorers TBC
On Sunday the Vets match against Wandgas Vets has been called off as the Oppo are unable to field a team.
Best wishes to the Junior Teams tomorrow.
