WICKLOW ROVERS
Our Leinster senior team got back to winning ways in midweek when they recorded an excellent 4-1 home victory over Ballyfermot United at Whitegates.
The lads fell behind after only six minutes but they then turned in a very impressive 40 minutes to blitz the away side.
The impressive twin strike force of Daniel Tarcevskis and Ciaran McGettigan tormented the away defence all night, their pace and power had the away rearguard at sixies and sevens.
Both Daniel and Ciaran found the net on a couple of occasions.
The second half was a bit of a non event and was probably down to the game being killed off as a contest.
On Saturday they added another three points with a good 3-1 win over Newlands/Castle Park at Whitegates.
The first half saw the lads struggle to reach the standards we have come accustomed to seeing from them resulting with the away side going in at the break one to the good.
The lads looked a complete different team in the second period as they were on the front foot for most of the half.
The game turned completely inside a minute around the fifty seventh minute.
First Ciaran McGettigan was fouled in the area to earn his side a penalty. Ian Brannigan coolly dispatched the resulting spot kick to the back of the net to bring his side level.
Less than a minute later Rovers were in front, Tommy Smullen was tenacious in the challenge right from the restart to put McGettigan in and he made no mistake to make it 2-1.
With five minutes left on the clock McGettigan latched onto a long clearance from defence and raced clear of the Dubliners defence to clinically fire home to seal the win.
Our Wicklow League side extended their unbeaten run to nine games with a fantastic 7-2 away victory over Ashford Rovers.
Jack Kelly set them on their way firing home a free kick around the
