Madison Celtic produced a battling performance in their opening State cup match against crack Division 1 outfit Cheshire Azzuri. For over 60 minutes the Celts more than held their own against the visitors with clear chances to take the lead from Fribeka and James. There is no doubt any bystanders watching this game would not have been able to tell the difference between the two teams. Even when Cheshire scored a scrambled goal the Celts kept fighting and could have got themselves back into the game. Unfortunately they managed a second goal that gave the wrong impression that this was an easier win for Cheshire than. It was anything but, and makes you wonder why Madison Celtic are languishing in the lower half of the third division!
MAN OF THE MATCH; Some great play by a number of players from front to back. James had a great game until he was brutally injured by the opposition, the rest of the midfield played really well. Mike Gill had an awesome first half before he had to leave. At the back Mike and Tim were rocks and played their hearts out. Even when Dan and Johnny I had injuries both TomA and Jim O seamless filled the gaps. Overall Tim gets the nod for MOM but there were many players right behind him
We played reasonably well. It was a great day.
