26/Sept/2010 – Both teams were slow to get going in the first half and it took until the 25th min for the first half chance. A corner broke to Brian Murphy but his shot struck Tadhg Collins on the way and was cleared. At the other end Waterloo had a couple of half chances as well but the defence and keeper dealt with them well. The second half started much the same but we began to find a bit more space after the first 20 mins. Paul Dawson and Chris Cleary had chances but we had to wait until the 75th min to take the lead. Dawson played a ball through for Collins who got around his man on the end line and squared it for Brian Murphy to tap home. Murphy had a great chance to make it 2-0 five minutes later but his shot came back off the upright. Waterloo pressed for the last 10 minutes but we held on comfortably for a big 3 points. Best for us on the day were Eamon O Keeffe, Brian Murphy and Tadhg Collins.
Team: Piotr Oziat, Eamon O Keeffe, Finbarr Corcoran, John Lehane, Tim Kiely, Brian Murphy, Donal O Riordan, Chris Cleary, Michael Murphy, Paul Dawson, Tadhg Collins
Subs: Danny O Riordan (60th min), John Cullinane, Shane Collins
