Islandmagee 2-6 Crumlin Star II

 

Crumlin Star second string kept their title chasing ambitions alive on staurday as they travelled to Islandmagee. Star were quick out of the blocks as Hamilton and Murray linked well down the right wing and an excellent cross from the latter, enabled Cairns to continue his impressive scoring streak and put the visitors one up inside five minutes. The Ardoyne men continued to press with both Osborne and Murray having the freedom of the flanks and they then doubled their lead as McConnall made a surging run through and allowed veteran Toner to coolly slot home. The Star defence were dealing with the few home attacks however, the home team got one back before the break as the Star failed to clear a corner.

 

H/T 2-1

 

After a few words from manager Hagans, the visitors extended their lead as Hawkins showed a touch of class and curled one into the net. The joy was short lived however as Islandmagee broke away and got another back leaving McNeill in goal no chance. Gormley and McConnall were continuing to release both wingers as Cairns squandered more chances for the visitors. Star introduced Brown, McCoey and Doyle and the latter was involved immediately as Cairns was brought down and Doyle slotted home from the spot. He was again given another chance from the spot as he was taken down and again made no mistake. Star were in complete control and then finished the game off as Brown linked well with Toner and the veteran got his second of the day. Manager Hagans was delighted with the team’s performance as they chase the title.

                                                     Kilroot Rec 0-1 Crumlin Star


The Star are through to another semi final this season after beating Kilroot 1-0 in Carrickfergus. In blustery condition it was difficult for both sides to play decent football but with the wind at their backs it was the Star who dominated most of the first half. Paul Brown had the games first goal scoring chance but his effort was well saved by the kilroot number one. It was the home side's turn to try and break the dead lock next and from a series of corners Thompson had to make a fine save on the line from the kilroot striker. The only goal of the game came midway through the half when excellent play from the Brown brothers enabled older brother Sean to break through on goal and calmly side foot the ball past the home side's keeper to put the Star 1-0 up. This gave the Star a massive lift as they started to play some excellent football but again they where sloppy in front of goal as Reid & Hawkins both missed one on one chances with the Kilroot keeper.
H/T 0-1
Facing a strong wind in the second half the Star knew they had to keep the ball on the deck and in all honestly it suited them as they created a lot more chances as they did in the first period. First to go close was captain Sean Brown when he broke free on goal but was denied by the excellent kilroot keeper. From the resulting corner Paul Brown found himself free in the box but his goal bound header was brilliantly pushed away by the home side's number one. The best move of the half came after some nice exchanges in the middle of the park resulted in Ciaran Reid breaking free down the left but his excellent cross was somehow missed by both Sean & Paul Brown for an easy tap in but Mooney kept the move alive out on the right and his cross was met by Devenny but his effort crashed of the post and across the line as the score remained 1-0. In fairness the home side where never out of the game and could've equalised on a couple of occasions but Thompson in goal made an outstanding save late on from a pin point header as the Star held firm for a deserved 1-0 win.
The Star are going for their third Cochrane & Corry Cup win in a row and joining them in the Semi's are Ford, Colin Valley & Immaculata. 

Team: Thompson, Hawkins, Nellis, Burns, McAlea, S.Brown, Reid, Braniff, Mooney, P.Brown, Devenny
