U14s Premier Johnstown 2 – Park villa 2.
In very wet conditions Johnstown opened their season in a hotly contested local derby against Parkvilla. With some players, playing out of position it took Johnstown a while to get going, heads went down a little when villa beat our defence down the middle to slot home and then a second came there way via a corner.
Two nil down at halftime, we knew we would have the bit of breeze at our backs, and it wasn’t long before Adam Quinn looped the ball over the villa keeper to rally the crowd.
Some more chances from Johnstown had Parkvilla rattled and the intensity in the crowd was at fever point. It was only a matter of time and then it came low ball across Adam again in the right place 2-2 game on.
Johnstown strained every sinew and can not question their commitment in looking for the win but alas mister time was on villas side!!.
A faster start next time should put us in a good place well done all.
