Culdaff FC 1
QPS 4
The home sides season of woe continues but the visitors recorded their first win of the season. QPS started well with Joseph Mckinney denied by a fine save from Puaric O Donnell. Culdaff replied and Michael Coyle headed wide from a corner before Dillon Ruddy released Coyle with a ball over the top but David Bell advanced to gather. The point spurned a great chance after an excellent Jordan Mclaughlin free found McKinney in front of goal but he miscued when he should have done better. After the home side lost possession on 26 minutes Odhran McColgan fed Joe McKinney through the centreand he poked the ball home past the advancing O’Donnell. McColgan then had a good effort well saved by O Donnell from a tight angle. The home side levelled on 33 minutes when Eugene McLaughlin fired a stunning free kick to the top corner from the edge of the area. But another defensive error before the break saw McColgan lay the ball off to Jordan McLaughlin who curled the ball with the outside of his right foot past O’Donnell. The point had a great start to the second period when McColgan converted a penalty which the home side hotly contested. Culdaff rallied and Coyle headed a Ryan Greene free over before Gary Collins released Niall McLaughlin through the middle and with Bell racing out of his area the big striker fired past him from thirty yards but it drifted just wide before substitute Jack McLaughlin had a shot blocked. The point completed the scoring when a Jordan McLaughlin free found Brian McColgan who powered a header to the roof of the net.
