Rearcross 'A' 3 - Nenagh Town 'A' 1

Rearcross 'A' got back to winning ways with a deserved 3-1 league victory against Nenagh Town 'A' last Sunday, a lively Nenagh combination looked dangerous from the kick off, however Rearcross counteracted well and went one nil in front in the 8th minute when the ball broke on the left flank to Thomas Kennedy who's resulting cross was finished to the back of the net by a well positioned Emmet Steed. Nenagh dominated proceedings for the remainder of the half with Oliver Kennedy having to be at his best in the 12th minute when he reacted well to save a headed effort from a corner kick. Nenagh's dominance paid off in the 35th minute when good play from Trevor Morrissey found Paul Cullen who unleashed an unstoppable shot to give the visitors a deserved equaliser. Oliver Kennedy again came to the rescue in the 41st minute when he saved a well struck shot from the edge of the eighteen yard box. Rearcross took control of the game from the start of the second half and were unlucky not to take the lead in the 53rd minute when Derek O'Toole out paced the Nenagh defence, however his effort hit the inside of the upright and rolled across the goal line to safety. Rearcross went ahead for the second time on 61 minutes when the ball broke to Derek O'Toole who rifled home from outside the eighteen yard box. Rearcross increased their lead in the 68th minute when Thomas Kennedy struck a left footed drive to the roof of the net to secure a valuable victory for Rearcross.
