Wasn't to be today for our u18 girls in the KDUL u18 cup final. The first half finished level at 2-2 with cracking goals from Kate Reidy & Chloe O'Connell. In what was a cracking match with Kilcock Celtic, the game was only decided in the last few minutes with MAFC pushing for an equaliser, Kilcock having gone 3-2 up, getting caught on the break to make the final score 4-2. Great performance from our girls and Congats to Kilcock Celtic on the win today.

MAFC Dig Deep in KDFL Masters Division

Straffan 2–3 Monasterevin AFC 35s

Monasterevin AFC travelled to Straffan knowing that nothing less than a huge performance would be required if they were to put a serious spanner in the hosts’ title ambitions — and the lads delivered.

Straffan got off to the perfect start, finding the net from close range after just 3 minutes. MAFC responded brilliantly, creating chance after chance as the pressure began to build.

That pressure eventually told. After a series of corners, James “Twiggy” McMahon stepped up and produced a moment of magic, curling the ball directly from the corner into the goalkeeper’s near top corner to bring MAFC level.

HALF-TIME: STRAFFAN 1–1 MAFC

The second half followed the same pattern, with Monasterevin relentless from the restart. Drico and Ash McCrave combined brilliantly to put Twiggy through, and the in-form midfielder made no mistake, finishing to put MAFC 2–1 ahead.

Then came a spectacular moment. Goalkeeper Niall McAteer launched a long clearance upfield which found the ever-dangerous Drico. With the goalkeeper off his line, Drico showed incredible composure to calmly chip him and put MAFC 3–1 up.

Straffan refused to surrender and pulled one back in the 51st minute, setting up a grandstand finish.

Both sides had chances as the game entered a tense final period, but MAFC refused to buckle. Staffy and Dave Kirwan led the defensive resistance, showing tremendous resilience to keep Straffan at bay.

FULL-TIME: STRAFFAN 2–3 MONASTEREVIN AFC 35s

A massive three points for MAFC and a superb all-round team performance.

The midfield pairing of Tommy Moloney and Spuddy were immaculate, covering every blade of grass and controlling the middle of the park. Ash McCrave and Freddie worked tirelessly on the wings, while the back five stood firm as a unit.

Up front, the front two worked their socks off from start to finish.

⭐ REFEREE’S MAN OF THE MATCH: JAMES “TWIGGY” MCMAHON

Twiggy’s two goals were decisive, but the truth is the award could have gone to any one of the eleven.

Outstanding performances from Tommy, Staffy, Sid and Spuddy, who gave absolutely everything from the first whistle to the last.

A huge result. A huge performance. And three points that MAFC thoroughly deserved.

MAFC: 3️⃣
STRAFFAN: 2️⃣
