Rearcross 'B' 2 - Birdhill 'B' 1

Rearcross 'B' continued their winning ways last Sunday morning in Bilboa with a well earned 2-1 victory over Birdhill 'B' in the Third Division League. The homeside playing with a strong breeze in the first half created the better chances, however it was the Birdhill outfit that took the lead in the 36th minute when a free kick from outside the area caused confusion in the Rearcross defence with the ball finishing in the net. Liam Nolan(B) equalised for Rearcross seven minutes into the second half when he rifled to the roof of the net after a poorly cleared corner kick. Rearcross 'B' grabbed a vital winner in the 78th minute when Joey Nolan crossed from the right wing to find the well positioned Paul Murphy who made no mistake from close range. The Rearcross defence held firm for the remainder of the game despite continued pressure from the visitors.
