Home side take final as U-17s disappointed
This afternoon, continuing on from where they finished up yesterday, our DDSL U-17 Majors showed their great potential as they put on a couple of marvellous displays out in Finglas.
Firstly at 1.15pm, they took on and beat Verona FC in an overwhelming 8-1 match.
While it was difficult to keep count, the Cabo scorers were Harry Faro (2), Liam Ryan (2), Taidgh Hughes (2), Andrew Knight and Emmet Lawless.
Their three match unbeaten run on an aggregate 14-3 scoreline really set the lads up for the 4.00pm final, against hosts McKelvey Celtic FC.
While the lads enjoyed themselves in the final and put on a great performance by all accounts, fate seems to have dealt them a knockout blow as Lady Luck seemed to favour the home side that came out on top on a 2-0 scoreline. Do enjoy a few photos taken at the tournament (also in the slide show below).
They can be rightly proud of their performances as they anticipate the season!
