Killorglin rescue win from 2-0 down

-

DENNY PREMIER B Killorglin 3 Camp United 2

IN a cracking contest Killorglin came from 2-0 down to win the game in the second half.

Camp slotted two goals in the first half without reply but Killorglin came out in a different frame of mind in the second half and were taking the game to their opponents and only for some good goalkeepin­g by the Camp custodian they could have found the net on acoupleofo­ccasions.

They began their comeback in the 63rd minute with an excellentl­y executed free kick by Paddy Collins. Now they were right back in the game and a couple minutes later they were awarded a penalty andCampwer­edownto10m­en. Sean Costello with his usual poise slotted the penalty away.

The home side made a couple of subs (Aiden O’Sullivan and Ryan Riordan) and kept the pressure on the away team. Even with 10 men Camp had their own chances but Killorglin clinched the game in the 75th minute when a great ball from Jason Browne found Brendan Breen in a great position and for the second game he claimed the winning goal.

This was a great come back by Killorglin who are adjusting to having only one senior team this year but showed great heart against a tough Camp outfit.
