29.1.12
\nSpartak 3, Postal 2<\/p>\n
With a number of players missing at Kevin O\u2019Toole\u2019s stag, and for other reasons, a friendly game gave an opportunity for some players on the mend from injury to return, with Mick Greene and Neill Bolger turning in solid performances after a hard fought saturday cup tie. <\/p>\n
Postal were not long in asserting their authority and raced into a two goal lead.
\nA poor clearance by Stephen Harris put Spartak in trouble and, although looking offside, the Postal striker scored. A clearing header by Dave Browne was a little too central and was returned with interest to the net for number two. Spartak came closest when Ciaran Keogh\u2019s 30 yard shot was touched over. A number of other chances created by the Sky Blues went abegging with Glen Burke missing a one on one.<\/p>\n
Early in the second half a drilled corner by Keogh was powerfully headed in by Burke to reduce arrears; and when Keith Kelly\u2019s on target shot slowed in the wet conditions, Burke raced in to finish. <\/p>\n
With a minute remaining a long cross field ball by Burke was retrieved by Bolger who laid on a first time shot from Kelly which arrowed into the top corner.<\/p>\n
Some fine performances in heavy conditions made for a pleasing outing.<\/p>\n
Drinks were on Glen back in the Eden as he celebrated a golf betting coup.<\/p>\n
