Johnstown’s 18’s today successfully defended their Albion Cup winners medals after 4 hard fought games.

Johnstown beat Parkvilla 1-0 with an Andrew Moran shot to the back of the net.

Next followed Stella Maris who Johnstown again beat 1-0 with a blistering drive from Tega Dortie.

Johnstown’s third game was against hosts Albion Rovers and Johnstown impressively put three past the hosts with goals from Sebastian Kalonzo, Tega Dortie and Nathan Dempsey’s cross was helped into the net by one of the Albion defenders.

Johnstown’s final game was another 1-0 victory with Tega again on target. Johnstown had Karl McHale to thank for this victory after two super stops including a double save to maintain the lead.

A solid start to the season considering we had 5 players unavailable.
