Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op
89' - Just a few minutes to go here and it looks like a late showing from Athlone won't be enough to avoid defeat. Cork passing the ball around comfortably now. Still... 3 minutes added time just declared.

Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op

Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op

Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op
46' - Cambridge should have increased Corks lead but shot straight at Schlingermann when set free by O'Neill. O'Neill then headed wastefully wide from the following corner.
Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op 45' - Yellow Card - A double yellow carding for Athlone. Gareth Kenna booked for a late challenge on Barrett and Andy Haran booked for kicking the ball away. 
Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op 45' - Half Time - Half time at Athlone. Not a good game. Some patches of nice passing play, particularly from Cork, but little to get excited about otherwise.
Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op
35' - Haran and O'Brien seeing very little of the ball up front for Athlone now. Cork are well in control if not exactly impressive.
Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op

Athlone Town 0 - 1 Cork City Foras Co-op
32' - Another great chance for Cork as a Cummins back-heel puts Turner in space on the right. His shot was poor and Schlingermann saved comfortably. 
Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op 29' - Goal - And just after his card Duggan wriggles into the Athlone box and slips the ball under Michael Schlingermann to give Cork the lead.

Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op 17' - Yellow Card - Brian McCarthy booked for Athlone following a foul on the edge of the box. The free kick came to nothing.
Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op
16' - Cork breaking quickly but too often the player in space is not being picked out. No sense that a goal is coming any time soon... cue a goal-fest!
Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op 15' - Yellow Card - Declan O'Brien of Athlone is booked.
Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op
10' - Very little to report after ten minutes play. No clear chances although Davin O'Neill blasted high over the bar for Cork and Declan O'Brien just had a pile driver blocked by Graham Barrett's face.
Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op 1' - First Half - The game here has just kicked off.
Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op
0' - Paul Doolin is a visitor at Athlone tonight. There's a small crowd here but with ten minutes to kick-off some bodies are slowly coming into the main stand. It's a showery evening in Westmeath but the pitch looks in great nick.
Athlone Town 0 - 0 Cork City Foras Co-op
0' - The teams are in at Lissywoolen and Athlone will have Austin Skelly available but he starts from the bench this evening. For Cork, George O'Callaghan is fit but also starts as a substitute. |
