Moyross Utd on verge of taking Division 2b title

BY ROSS RYAN

Moyross Utd FC as good as clinched the division 2b league title with a 3-2 win over bottom of the table Regional Utd last night.

It was a hard fought battle playing the strugglers in their own backyard but Moyross found a way to victory.

Goals from Johnny Corbett, Barry Quinn and Glen Woodland secured all three points for the champions elect. With Moyross now 12 points clear of second-placed Polonia Luimni, it would take a miracle to stop them taking the title.

They have a huge game on Sunday in the Lawson Cup quarter-final against Premier League leaders Janesboro. Moyross will go in as underdogs but the team is optimistic.

"I think we’ve a good chance, it's at home and the crowd will be behind us," said Mark Mulane.

It is the first time in the Lawson Cup that a team in Division 2b or lower have made the quarter-finals.

The match will be played in Pineview Gardens at 11am on Sunday morning.
