FIONN FLYS ON THE WING

Carton 3 v 5 D.2
Dollymount started the best with 2 very good chances, 1st Johner weaves his way past 3 defenders and rounds the keeper, only to bring the ball too far wide, giving the keeper time to recover and save. 2nd Quinner rounds 2 defenders but blasts over.
After 10 mins Dollymount 2-0 down because of some weak attempts at clearing the ball for the first and a mix up between Glenn & Brian both leaving the ball to each other, letting the forward go through and giving Jez no chance.
20 minutes Quinner takes along throw into Doc at the near post and he slots home with ease. 21mins D.2 defence call for offside, not given, no.9 through again and buries the ball into the corner.
35 minutes Fionn takes off down the left wing skips past 3 defenders and lays a well weighted ball to Tom, who turns into the box and his legs are taken from under him. Even do he tried his best he could not stay on his feet and was awarded the penalty. DOC came forward and calmly but firmly struck the ball into the bottom left corner. DOC's 2nd. Even though Dollymount had most of the possession, D.2 were still losing 3-2.
D.2 had a couple more chances before the break, main one Johner heading over from close range.
Dollymount had most of the 2nd half and at times playing good football on the ground. With Robbie having their no. 9 in his pocket for the whole of the last 45 minutes, Carton had no real out let.
With 25 minutes of pressure on the Carton team, Dollymount finally got the equaliser when Brian McGurran cut in from the right wing and curled the ball into the far top corner. There was only going to be one winner and Dollymount took the lead when DOC sent a free into the box and Johner finally got the goal he deserved.
A few minutes later Quinner found himself with loads of time and a few yards out. Looking for the spectacular he blasted the ball over the bar, instead of just beating the keeper and insuring all 3 points.
With the game in the last 10mins, Fionn was on another of his runs down the left(FLYING up & down the wing for the 90mins) collided with a Carton player and end with 6 inch stud cuts, up the inside of his thigh. Robbie aims the ball the full lenght of the pitch to carton's wide line but Quinner had different ideas and caught the ball before going out and beat the keeper by slotting it into the bottom corner, making up for his earlier mistake.
It was a fine team performance, taking into account, the new team format with the 2 wing backs, Fionn & Brian who both work very hard, running up and down the line, to make the system work. The back 3 of Gar ,Glenn And Robbie Grow into the new set up, especially in the 2nd 1/2 when Carton hardly got a look at goal.
Tom & DOC worked tirelessly in the middle. Upfront Johner showed all across the park. Johner & Quinner both had very good games trying to link up and made chances for themselves. DOC is now the leading CLUB scorer on 4.

D.1. 2 v 3 Amber Celtic 2 sept 09

CLOSE FINISH FOR DOLLYMOUNT 1st
Dollymount should have had a late equalizer in injury time when the ball broke in the box for footsoilder & Deano, Deano pull on the ball first and blasted inches over the bar.
The early part of match was closely contested., and D.1 took the lead when they were awarded a penalty which Quinner smashed to right of the keeper, even though he got a hand to the ball, the keeper couldn't keep it out.
Amber equalized soon after, when Quinners misplaced pass went to an amber forward whose cross was met with Aido Clare's head as he was diving to intercept. The deflection wrong footed Jamie in goal. A lot of bad luck .....
Dollymount heads dropped a bit after that and they were soon 2-1 down and 3rd soon came when Tobin, on the edge of the box, got his head to a long ball and it looped high over Jamie in goal. Another unlucky headed O.G.
Hazel got one back after some good work , slotting it easily pass the keeper with his left foot.
Dollymount played a lot better in the 2nd half and should of got some thing from the match.

Conwell 3 v 0 D.2 31th aug 09

BAD PERFORMANCE BY DOLLYMOUNT 2nds

Conwell deserved their 3 - 0 win. D.2 did have 3 good chances in the first half and a few more in the second. But mainly the passing was bad and hardly ever played the ball on the ground. The few times they did, they made chances. Individual mistakes and lazy marking and not chasing back, cost goals. A few worked hard in patches but no team play.

Hopefully the players will learn that they have to work hard on the pitch and help each other out instead of arguing.
