On a nice Saturday afternoon at Celtic Park Killarney Park got if to a great start from the kick off and the ball went down the field where there was a bit of a scramble in the goalmouth and Oba managed to get a foot on it to score on 3 minutes but unfortunately got injured 0-1 Park. The game carried on with Park mounting attack after attack and Connor Higgins got the ball in the box rounded the defender and put the ball in the net 0-2 Park .
Killarney started to come into their own and mounted several attack which were all dealt with by Dean ,Jack John and Josh in defence who were all outstanding . Second half got underway Aaron passes a ball through to James but his shot goes over the top. Dean gets the ball takes it down the wing puts it through to Aaron who runs and crosses to Oba who slots it past the keeper to make it 0-3 Park. The ball comes forward once more and Oba gets the ball rounds a couple of defenders and drives it past the Keeper to score his hat trick 0-4 Park .
Killarney fought back and were awarded a penalty for a dubious handball and although Jack was at full stretch he couldn’t get a hand to it 1-4 Park .This seemed to give Killarney new life and they brought the ball down the field and put a ball over the top of the Park defenders and the forward ran into it just getting it before the oncoming Park keeper and just managed to tap it round him into the net to make it 2-4 Park final score .
