St Colemans Park - Saturday 4th October 2008 - ko 7.45pm Rovers beaten in Cobh again... At a wet and windy St. Colman's park Rovers had the better of the first half. Central defenders Price and O'Brien contained the Cobh attack while Purcell and Sean O'Connor were combining well for Rovers, creating several chances but without seriously troubling the Cobh keeper. Second half was evenly contested until the 79th minute when Duggan overstretched for the ball and took down the Cobh player in possession, Duggan was booked and Cobh took the lead from the resulting penalty. Rovers went looking for the equalizer immediately and were unlucky when Madden's diagonal shot from 20 metres beat the keeper but struck the angle of post and crossbar. Cobh closed out the game for the remaining minutes to take the three points. |
