Millstreet Celtic lost at home 2-1 to Innishvilla this morning. Both teams were slow to get going and there were no notable chances for the first 20 mins. We created our first chance when a ball broke for Barry Lawlor at the edge of the box but he shot just over. Shortly after Tadhg Collins got free down the left and whipped over a great cross for Lawlor who just couldn’t stretch enough to divert the ball goalwards. Innishvilla took the lead in the 35th min affter we were caught out by a quick free kick. The 2nd half was better by both sides and we almost got level after 55 mins when Collins got clear but his shot went wide. 5 mins later we were level when Collins was fouled in the box. Tim Kiely slotted home to make it 1-1. There were half chances at both ends but it was Innishvilla who took the lead in the 70th min. We kept pushing for the equaliser but couldn’t find the net. Best for us on the day were Brian Murphy and Barry Lawlor.
