Under 14 Goodson Cup Round 2 

Granada FC      2

Kynog Utd       0

 

Kynog Utd made their exit from the Goodson Cup at the 2nd round stage in Meadowvale the home of Granada FC. Both teams started brightly with defences on top in the early stages and space and time on the ball were limited as both midfields closed down their opponents quickly.

Granada opened the scoring in the 14th minute when a corner was met on the volley at the edge of the penalty area and found the roof of the net. Jack Kenny and Eamon Cox were prominent for Kynog in the opening half whilst Darren Carty and Patrick Hudson continue to impress. Granada started to exert more pressure on the Kynog defence but found it difficult to break through the rearguard . Kynog went close to an equaliser in the 27th minute when an excellent passing movement saw Conor Staines have a shot well saved by the goalkeeper and Adrian Morans follow up shot went narrowly wide.

The second half began with Kynog on the attack with Conor Staines again forcing the goalkeeper to save well. Granada then doubled their advantage in the 50th minute when a left wing cross found an unmarked Granada player who with time and space calmly found the back of the net.

The game finished with no further scores despite the best efforts of both teams.
