Match Report

You will receive a calendar invitation by email. There was 4 corner flags, 2 goalposts, a football and 22 kids on a grassy area in Kilcullen last night but it’s a stretch to say there was a football game played. If you closed your eyes and listened you could have imagined yourself on the plains of Arizona as the buffalo stampeded through.

We even got the shoot out that all great John Wayne movies had at the end. But this time it was penalties. And this time John Wayne was dressed in blue and wore a Captain’s armband.

And with his final shot, Sam won the war after Naas had lost every battle it felt like. With 2 minutes to go Naas were 3-1 down. Only a fool’s hope kept them going but hope none the less.

A corner was dropped into the 6 yard box and an almighty scramble ensued and the ball fell to Sam who decided he wasn’t going out of the cup just yet. 3-2. 5 minutes of injury time, announced the ref.

That’s all we need, announced the lads. Sean Carey burst into the box with only moments left. A despairing last ditch tackle failed and the ref pointed to the spot.

Rhys Wall stepped up and took the hopes and dreams of the entire squad onto his shoulders and drilled the penalty home to equalise. No time for anything else only penalties. Dorking Wanderers Youth U13 Youth Yellows
