2.3.19
Mt Merrion 2, Spartak 2
Spartak took a valuable point in a wind ruined game in Rosemount.
Played on a cold afternoon in near gale conditions, both teams had to battle against the elements and their opponents.
Spartak took an early lead when a wind assisted effort by Carl Fenlon flew into the net.
Mt Merrion struck back and prodded home following a cross.
Spartaks’ best chance of the second half fell to Carl Fenlon, but he fired just wide after a good move.
Liam Caffrey produced some excellent stops to keep the Sky Blues in the game, but was beaten by a free kick with just three minutes left.
It was well into injury time, with Spartak throwing caution to the (very strong) wind when Mo Sheleg picked up a loose clearance and crossed for Seamus McCahill to knock in a deserved equaliser.
