Venue: LIT

The opening affairs, played on a splendid LIT surface, yielded little in way of clear cut chances. Both sides had half hearted penalty cries waved away by the ever authoritive Pat Gleeson.

Mid way through the first half Ronan Kerin was put through on goal from a sublime through ball from the bright Kaylon O Loughlin only to be expertly denied by keeper Barry Deasy. From there on, Bridge Utd closed out the half with the majority the play with Mike McNamara and Eoghan Pewter to the fore.

Bridge opened the scoring just shy of the hour mark when McNamara capitalised on a mistake from Michael Junaid, to slip in on goal, his strike was only parried to the onwaiting Pewter to slam to the net. Minutes later, Bridge doubled their lead when the highly rated young Lee Wall unleashed a stunning 25 yard effort to the Avenue net. From here on Bridge Utd completely dominated proceedings and added further gloss with a brace from substitute John Keogh.

Both sides were down key players when both sides faced off in LIT on Sunday. Avenue’s new signing Barry Ryan who transferred from Tulla Utd was a big loss for the Ennis club.

Bridge Utd A: Barry Deasy, Kevin Kelly, Darren Murphy, Eoin Guinan, Jay Whyte, Jonathan Downes, Darragh Fitzgerald, Eoghan Pewter, Trevor Maxwell, Mikey Mcnamara, Kieran Quinlan. Subs: Dan Larkin for Kelly, Lee Wall for Maxwell, John Keogh for Mcnamara, Christy Carey for Pewter, Jordan Downes for Quinlan.
