PRIM-ED U14 LEAGUE Brideview Utd 6 Castlebridge Celtic 0
Utd needed to win this game to win the league but they were made to work hard for victory. In a tight opening half Utd started best with Adam Pratt scoring after just five minutes. Celtic came more into the game after this and both sides missed chances. With just two minutes of the first half remaining a great header by Almeida put Utd 2-0 up. The half-time whistle sounded soon after.
The second half saw Utd’s Ben Sheehan grab a hat trick with Almeida grabbing his second during the half. It was a great display from our boys. This was our third league championship this season.
