Minor Soccer vs East Glendalough

It was a windy, icy cold day down in Greystones United on the all weather pitch. The group consisting of predominantly second year students made their way down to the pitch to face East Glendalough in the first group stage match of the year.

St David’s started well with some good midfield work by Lucas Du Preez and Luke van den Bergh. In the middle of the first half van den Bergh whipped in a vicious corner which landed at the feet of Alex Baines who slotted it home, 1-0 to St. David’s. The horrific winds played a crucial part in St David’s conceding a goal late in the first half. After an attempted clearing header the wind took the ball back towards the David’s goal and fell perfectly to the East Glendalough striker. Half time 1-1.

St.David's dominated possession in the second half but were unable to put the ball in the back of the net. Final score 1-1.
