Vale Wanderers AFC Black 1 - 3 Slaney Rovers AFC

This game proved to be a thoroughly enjoyable encounter in the very pleasant Autumn conditions. And although a deserved victory for the away side ensued it proved to be a very evenly contested affair.

	The Rathvilly lads started very brightly and did fashion a few early chances but some very good defending by the home side kept the sides level for the opening twenty minutes. As the half wore on however Slaney’s efforts were duly rewarded when Conor Doody scored a nicely taken opening goal. Their lead was extended shortly thereafter when Darragh Corcoran seized upon a loose ball inside the Vale box for a 0-2 half-time score.
	Into the second half Vale started to gain momentum with the wind now firmly in their favour. The game now provided for great entertainment as the Vale lads continued to press whilst leaving space behind. And because of this it was Slaney who struck again with Darragh Corcoran securing his second on the 45th minute. Nevertheless, the Vale lads showed great resolve and eventually scored their opening goal through the prolific Alan Fitzgerald. But despite some clever and innovative play by the home team 1-3 proved to be the final score.
	Overall a thoroughly enjoyable game with Slaney Rovers deservedly taking the spoils. Best for Vale Black were Mikey Dowling, Jack Twomey and Ódhran Murphy while for Slaney defender Cian Weeks put in a man-of-the-match performance.
