Glyde see off game Mitchels

GLYDE RANGERS 1-14 JOHN MITCHELS 0-6

-

EIGHT points from full forward Brian Duffy and a Dion Conlon goal helped Glyde Rangers overcome John Mitchels on Saturday evening.

Gareth Kane opened the scoring for the Mitchels before Glyde settled down and they were full value for a 0-9 to 0-2.

The second half followed a similar pattern with Ciaran Sheridan dominating for Glyde in midfield and Cein Sheridan controllin­g the full back line for Glyde. David Brennan, in goal for Glyde, had never came under any serious pressure and used his long kick outs to utterly control the game. Glyde seemed a bit lack lustre but came to life when Dion Conlon went on one of his powerful runs through the middle after 25 minutes, his looping shot dropped short. However Aaron Devlin went for a flick only to miss, completely fooling the unfortunat­e Anderson and the ball eased over the line for the goal. Anderson saved again from Gavin Duffy later in the game as the floodgates never quite opened for Glyde. However further points from both Gavin and Brian Duffy sealed the win.
