Park Celtic 2 : DLTFC 1 (22.03.08)

Whilst the "B" Squad was been mauled in Ratoath, Co. Meath, it was quite another story back in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown on Saturday 22nd March 2008 as the "A" Squad faced local foe Park Celtic at Meadowvale. Park Celtic hoping to repeat their triumphal win over "The Town" at the beginning of the month came out in a buoyant mood brimming with confidence and sure of an easy win. Japo Kelly's lads were ready and Park Celtic were near shell shocked at the performance of the "A" Squad. Tight and effective defending, good solid passes and teamwork produced the goods as with only three minutes to go the teams were level with one goal a piece. The very talented young striker from Shankill, Dean Kelly (pictured above) once again doing the business for "The Town" with a remarkably executed and simply superb goal. But then, three minutes to the whistle, Park Celtic clenched the winning goal. Disappointed but proud of a solid performance, the lads of "The Town" must be congratulated for a job well done. Final score: Park Celtic 2 : DLTFC 1
