Winning SuperCupNI start for Academy team

Posted : 25th July 2023 at 08:47:02

The Linfield 2010s kicked off their SuperCup campaign with a 3-0 victory over Warrenpoint at Anderson Park.

The young Blues started the game really and didn't let Warrenpoint get into the game in the early stages and after a couple of missed chances, we took the lead when Cameron Kennedy hammered a loose ball home after some neat play by Corey McCartney.

The same player (Cameron Kennedy) doubled our lead when he followed in to finish off Alex McLatcheys shot which had hit the underside of the crossbar.

After some near misses in the second half from some excellent play, Alex McClatchey’s fierce drive was adjudged to have crossed the line after he again thundered the ball off the underside of the crossbar.

A good win and performance to start the week.

After the game the lads were visited by the one and only Oscar winning actor James Martin. James was very complimentary about how the boys played and congratulated them on their performance. James was also keen to offer some advice for life, telling the boys to believe in themselves and follow their dreams.

The young Blues now take on IDA Bermuda today (Tuesday) at the Raida stadium with an 11 o'clock kick off.
