It was a nice, mild October afternoon for a game of football and the first half was very competitive. St Anne’s took the lead on seventeen minutes, when Mackenzie McIvor cross was fired home by Jack Gorman for 1 – 0 and there was no further scores and St Anne’s took that slender lead into the interval. In the second-half, Vale had to make a number of substitutions and positional changes because of injuries and unfortunately this affected them badly and allowed St Anne’s to capitalise on this and they scored eight more unanswered goals to run out winners by 9 – 0. The final score doesn’t reflect on what was a very competitive first- half, as St Anne’s took full advantage in the second half of Vale’s bad luck. St Anne’s goal scorers were Cathal Casey (3), Paddy Julian (2), James Hovendon, Jack Gorman, Tadgh Dineen, and Alex McDonagh. Standing out for St Anne’s were Darragh Loughman, Jamie O’Brien and Diarmuid Downey, whilst the beleaguered Vale team battled manfully to the end.
