Northend United 6 St Marys 0   Friday 17th January 2025

The U17s played their first league match since mid-November, it was great to field a near full strength team against a much changed St Mary’s team.

The first half was one for the boys the cobwebs off with a scrappy affair taking place although keenly fought. The boys went in 1 up thanks to a Pauric penalty. Half time 1-0

The second half saw their new player Anto Cochrane enter for his debut and within five mins he had put us two up followed quickly by his second, three up and we were in total control and rarely troubled.

Anto got his hattrick from the spot after a clear foul in the box. The fifth came from Aaron who tapped in after fine work from Anto and Jack scored the six from just inside the box, again with an assist from Anto. Great to be back and all the boys stepped up to perform. Full time 6-0

Panel: Alex Crawford, Wiktor Wronski, Shea McConnell, Jack Patterson, Aaron Doherty, Ryan McClintock, Shane McAuley, Shay Butler, Jude Storrie, Odhran Duffin, Anto Cochrane, Pauric Redmond
