MSL soccer: UCC overcome early setback to beat Cobh Wanderers


Noel Healy’s men didn’t get the best of starts in Cobh; they fell behind inside a minute when a delivery into the penalty area caught the visitors napping and Ross McCarthy had time to bring the ball under control before firing past UCC keeper Callan Scully.

Cobh continued to have the better of the exchanges, but UCC defended very well and limited the home side’s opportunities to test Scully further, though Stuart O’Rourke did bring another excellent stop out of the keeper with five minutes remaining.
