Cu Chulians 3-14 Dulwich 1-4.
Thursday evening’s game at Peckham rye saw us take on our local rivals Dulwich harps in a mcardle cup fixture win which puts us into the semi- final off the competition.
We had a very strong panel available and with a strong team selected it showed from the min the ball was threw in as we created chance after chance and took our scores well through- out the team, with seven different players getting on the score sheet.
Cu Chulians started the brighter with the first point of the game coming from Chris Eastwood after a good direct ball in from Sean Kelly, after some good build up play from the half back line off Kieran wynne.
Points followed by Calvin Sweeney , an excellent score by the returning Kevin Cott at half back , and Sean Kelly contributing Two further scores between the Dulwich posts.
In what was a tough game for Dulwich as they could not match the work rate and hunger of us on the night and we added to the score board with Aido scoring a great Goal fisting the ball by the Goal Keeper.
Half time 1.07 Dulwich 0-1
The second half began as the first half with cu Chullians bombarding the Dulwich defence with chance after chance, although to Dulwich credit they didn’t lie down as from the 45th min Dulwich began to chip away at the score board.
With two goals from C Eastwood adding to the score line, the second into the roof off the net after some great work from Aido, and then with the introduction of team captain Eddie Mcguigan who steadied the ship we went on to win on a score line off 3-13 to 1-4.
This was a fantastic panel effort and hopefully we can continue the momentum going forward this season and maintain the commitment, dedication and most off all the fantastic numbers at training each week. We would also like to thank all off our supporters who came out on the night to support us.
It was also Great to see some of the old guard making a their first competitive starts off the year with Stevie Jordan and Paul Cahill both playing terrific games at full back and corner back and with Kieran Wynne still full of energetic bursts up and down the field we have gathered a mixture of old wise heads and the younger generation coming through the club giving us a nice balance to work with .
