Peake Villa 4 – 0 Clonmel Town
After last week's defeat, Villa’s second team were hoping to bounce back on Sunday at the Tower Grounds, and they did so in style, with a big win over rivals Clonmel Town. They started brightly, and within four minutes took the lead when Luciano Carelli played in Michael Oola, who made no mistake. They continued in this vein and were rewarded with a second in the 32nd minute, when a Mark Lennon free kick was headed in by Danny Treacy for 2-0.
They continued to control the game in the second half, and got the third ten minutes in, when Danny Treacy found Kevin Croke, who scored to the bottom corner. A good run from Jack Kelly out of defence found Alex Moloney, and they played a one two, before Kelly found Aaron Graham, who made it four with a fine finish 15 minutes from time.
Cullen Lattin 0 – 0 Old Bridge
Cullen welcomed an experienced Old Bridge side, to Aisling Park on Sunday, and the teams shared the spoils after an entertaining, but ultimately goalless game.
The home side had the best chance of the first period when a Brendan O’Sullivan shot was saved well and Tommy O’Mahoney failed to convert the rebound minutes after the half hour mark, and O’Mahoney did well just before half-time when he went down right and squared the ball from the end line but the Clonmel defence managed to scramble and clear their lines.
The main threat for the Bridge came from Alex Greene whose pace was a always a danger, and though the home side dominated possession they failed to break down Old Bridge, and the game ended in a draw.
