St Lomans Mullingar 2.07 Milltownpass 0.11

St Lomans got back to winning ways in the Division 1 League on Friday night last with a two-point win against a determined Milltownpass team. The blues welcomed back the trio of Paddy Dowdall, David Whelan and Paul Sharry and the three had a major effect on the outcome of the game.

Shane Dempsey opened the scoring with a point immediately from the throw in but the visitors were in front within two minutes with Sam Duncan twice on target. The move of the match soon followed when Paul Sharry and David Whelan linked up that seen a classy finish from Sharry rattle the roof of the net. 

Milltownpass reduced the margin with an Evan Gorman point before Shane Dempsey added two scores to his tally. The visitors had the better of the second quarter clocking up four points with David Windsor and Paul Sharry points in between these keeping the blues in front. The crucial moment of the game arrived on the 30^th minute when a wonderful run from David Whelan seen his effort blocked before TJ Cox bravely fisted to the net for St Lomans second goal.

The second half wasn’t a classic from St Lomans point of view as it took them until the 24^th minute of the half to register their next score. Both sides were guilty of missing scoring chances but three points from Milltownpass kept them in touch. Some solid defending from St Lomans kept them at bay and two late Paul Sharry points sealed the win for the blues.
