Millstreet Celtic v Buttevant B – 13/03/2011
We were beaten 2-1 at home in the County Cup by Buttevant B on Sunday morning. We started the game well and had early chances for Barry Lawlor, Tim Kiely and Michael Murphy which we failed to convert and shortly after Danny O Riordan hit the crossbar with a header. Our tempo dropped after that and Buttevant started to come into the game a lot more. Despite that, they didn’t create many chances and we should have taken the lead just before half time. Paul Dawson was one on one with the keeper but lifted his shot just over the bar to leave the sides level at half time. The second half was very scrappy with few chances for either side. Buttevant took the lead in the 75th minute following some sloppy defending and another mistake 5 mins later put them 2 ahead. We got one back straight away when Chris Cleary headed back across the goal for Dawson to finish but we couldn’t find the second goal in the remaining 5 minutes.
