Cumnock Juniors 2014s

Out the traps quick again today, racing in to a 3-0 lead after 15 minutes with good aggressive forward play. Isaac scoring two of them with Kaydn getting the other. At that, for 15 minutes leading up to half time, we sat off the game and allowed AC Irvine back in to it and they finished the half the stronger team getting a goal just on half time to make it 3-2.

A few changes at break to freshen things up and the boys got a grip of the game again, scoring two good goals, Isaac and Kaydn the scorers. Irvine scored with 5 minutes to go but our boys managed to settle the game down and see it through to win the 3 points

Thanks to AC Irvine for travelling down

Boys travelled down for a midweek fixture versus Troon tonight and came back up the road with the 3 points.

A real quick start with 3 goals in the first 15 minutes gave us a good standing in the game, arriving at half time with a 4-0 lead.

Second half was an even game, Troon scored a goal with 15 minutes left to give themselves a glimmer of hope, but the boys stood up to the challenge and seen it out.

We move on to Saturday for our 3rd league fixture as we welcome AC Irvine.

Cumnock 1-1 Prestwick

Decent enough start to our first competitive league season with the points being shared in the end. Was a close game with not a lot of clear cut chances for either team. Prestwick scoring from a free kick outside the box with 10 minutes to go.

A great reaction from our boys to going behind, squeezed the game and Rocco ran down the line to win a free kick just outside the box. Kaydn stepped up and whipped a wicked ball in that looped over the opposition goalkeeper in to the net. Kaydn with only a few minutes left also hit the bar to take all 3 points but it wasn’t to be.

Points shared and we move on to a midweek fixture away to Troon on Tuesday night.

Bonnyton 3-3 Cumnock

Great comeback this morning from 0-2 down early doors. Heads could have went down easy but the boys rolled their sleeves up and started competing properly, the rewards being coming back in to the game. Could have won it with the last kick or the ball with Isaac going through 1v1, but a tired shot just past the post meant the game finished in what was probably a fair result. Special mention to Allan pulling off a double save at 1-2 to keep us in the game.

Fitness levels were good for our first game of the season having had a 2 month lay off since our last, and will give us a platform to kick on.
