Killala 7 Snugboro 0
Killala U-13 entertained Snugboro United this evening and it was allways going to be a close affair seeing as 3 weeks ago Killala emerged Victorious at Snugboro in a narrow 4-3 win.
As the old saying goes football is definately a game of 2 half’s with very little seperating the 2 sides after the first 35 minutes and only for some fine defending by both sides both teams going in scoreless at half time.
The introduction of Anthony Kearney at half time paid immediate reward after the Killala player beat 3 defenders and struck the ball sweetly to give the home side the lead.
After that the flood gates opened up with 2 goals from Killala’s Kevin Healy and 1 apiece for Kyle McLoughlin, Shane McAndrew, Kieran Lally and Rory McGuire making the final score 7-0 with most being set up by man of the match Nathan Browne who terrorised Snugboro down the right wing.
Killala are now joint top of the league and now with 5 wins in a row seem like the form side in the division.
Team:Declan Walsh, Peter Lynott (Padraic O’Donnell 65min), Connor Mooney (Brian Lawlor 50min), David Lawlor, Keith Higgins, Kevin Healy (Tom Dempsey 65 min), Alan Kenny (Kieran Lally 40min), Caelan Dorris (Anthony Kearney 35min), Kyle McLoughlin, Shane McAndrew (Domnick Dempsey 50min), Nathan Browne and Rory McGuire replacing the injured Domnick Dempsey after 60 min.

Killala 3 Castlebar Town 1
Killala U-13 boys made it 4 wins in a row this evening with an impressive 3-1 win against Castlebar Town .
After a tight opening 20 minutes Killala midfielder Kevin Healy broke the deadlock with a well taken free kick from just outside the box, it was a well deserved lead as Killala had the lions share of possession and were unlucky to go in at half time only one nil up.
The second half saw Killala pile pressure on the visitors with Kieran Lally, Kevin Healy and Kyle McLoughlin all going close to extending Killala’s lead.
The Home team got rewarded for their persistance when man of the match Kieran Lally got the first of his 2 headed goals 15 min into the second half with the other coming 10 min from time. Castlebar fought on and claimed a consulation goal at the death.
Team: Craig McCormick, Connor Mooney, Padraic O’Donnell, David Lawlor, Keith Higgins (C), Alan Kenny, Kevin Healy, Nathan Browne, Kyle McLoughlin, Anthony Kearney & Kieran Lally.
Subs: Domnick Dempsey for Nathan Browne. Shane McAndrew for Anthony Kearney. Brian Lawlor for Padraic O’Donnell & Tom Dempsey for Alan Kenny

Killala 8 Inver United 1
An easy win over bottom side Inver Utd consilidated the home sides 5 point lead at the top of Div.1. An early wonder goal from Rory Gallagher his 18th of the season and a contender for one of his best, set the tone for this big win. Another Gallagher goal and one from Marc McDonnell gave the Killala lads a halftime lead of 3-0. Complaceny set in during the opening period of the second half and sloppy play by Killala allowed Inver back into the game and with one of their raids on the homeside goal the a shot from the angle of the box ended up in the side netting and amid claims from the Inver players the referee order a goal kick. From this Shane Whyte punt up the pitch Gallagher won the ball and outpaced the visitors defence to claim his hatrick or so he thought. as the kickoff by Inver was about to be taken the protests were still ongoing about the incident at the other end and Inver were claimimg a goal from that. The referee then decided to award the goal to Inver and chalk off the Killala goal, from 4-0 to 3-1 what a bizzare decision. This incident didnt knock Killala off their stride and Gallagher eventually registered his hat rick moments later. He grabbed a fourth and his 21st goal of the season with 15 minutes to play and further goals from Martin McLoughlin, Alan Murphy and Brendan Ryan completed the rout. Team : Sean McHale, Matt Webb, David Cadden, Oliver Clarke, Shane Whyte, Marc McDonnell, Ian O’Boyle, John Clarke, Alan Murphy, Rory Gallagher, Ronan Heffron, Subs Brendan Ryan & Martin McLouglin

Castlebar Celtic B1 Killala 5
Killala opened up a 5 point gap at the top of division 1 by virtue of this comfortable in Celtic Park on Sunday. Despite the scare of any early goal for the homeside Killala began to settle on the tight Astro turf pitch and were soon back in the game when McNulty headed home a Murray fee kick. Celtic appeals for what appeared to be a penalty were waved away and moments later Killala got their own penalty a Gallagher made no mistake and once the visitors were in front their was no looking back. A Murray free kick and another by Gallagher made it 4-1 at halftime. Kevin Murray struck another free kick in the secondhalf to kill off the game but McNulty and Gallagher had further chances but all were scorned .Team. Sean McHale, Matt Webb, David Cadden, Oliver Clarke, Kevin murray, Marc McDonnell, Ian O,Boyle, John Clarke, Alan Murphy, Johnny McNulty, Rory Gallagher, Subs, Ronan Heffron, Brendan McNulty & Mark McLoughlin

It was hard to get back to business after the weekends Cup Final disappointment
but the lads knew 3 points would put them clear at the top and they started in whirlwind fashion. They went two up after 15 minutes through Rory Gallagher & Johnny McNulty and should have been out of sight when Manulla pulled one back from the spot, but poor finishing let them down. Gallagher restored the margin when he scored a wonderful goal from a Marc McDonnell through ball just before the break. The Second half was all Killala and Gallagher completed his hatrick and another strike from McNulty sealed the visitors fate Team.Killala: S. McHale, M. Webb, D. Cadden, K Murray , O. Clarke, J. Clarke, E.Knox, M. McDonnell, J. McNulty, R. Gallagher, A. Murphy.

No sudden death for Villa
Final
Moy Villa 1
Melia 24
Killala 1
Clarke 82
(AET, Moy Villa won 8-7 on penalties)
Daniel Carey
Milebush Park
AFTER 110 minutes, it took 16 penalties to separate Moy Villa and Killala before the Attymass side prevailed at Milebush Park, Castlebar last Sunday.
Actually, that’s not strictly true. The eventual winners took the lead after 24 minutes, and looked to be heading for victory before conceding the equaliser seven minutes from time. After 15 successful penalties, Villa’s Eugene Carlin saved Marc McDonnell’s kick, and was quickly swamped by ecstatic team-mates.
Both sides had one decent chance apiece before the opening goal. Keith Melia’s inswinging corner forced Killala goalkeeper Seán McHale to claw the ball out. McHale’s opposite number Eugene Carlin raced from goal and got to the ball ahead of Killala’s David Lowther, but John Clarke, following up, had a chance to score, but shot wide.
Villa took the lead following a great cross from Momme Reibisch from the right, which Keith Melia headed home. Killala almost got an instant equaliser, but Carlin brought off a stunning save from Johnny McNulty’s volley, and John Judge cleared the ball off the line from the resulting corner.
There were further goal chances before half time. Stephen Moyles’s curling shot went out for a Villa corner, while John Durkan forced a decent save from McHale. At the other end, McNulty’s sweet pass found Alan Murphy, whose ball from the right found Lowther. The midfielder shot wide from close range, but was flagged offside in any event. McNulty was taken down just outside the box in the run-up to half time, but it was still 1-0 at the interval.
A second goal would have given Villa daylight, but Durkan was thwarted in his efforts to get it after latching onto a throw, as McHale tipped the ball out for a corner. On the hour mark, Lowther headed just wide from a corner by Rory Gallagher, whose number 10 shirt was sported at least five other Killala people at Milebush Park.
Seven minutes before the end, Eugene Carlin was penalised after assistant referee Aidan Nevin ruled that he had taken the ball outside the penalty area with his hand. John Clarke’s free kick took a deflection and ended up in the net. Suddenly, we were facing the prospect of extra time in a divisional final for the third week in a row.
But sides had one-on-ones during the additional period. Durkan’s through ball found Kevin Langdon, who was denied by a superb McHale stop. At the other end, McNulty slipped the ball over Carlin but it drifted agonisingly wide.
And so, penalties were required, preceded by a mass movement of spectators towards the town end once it became clear where the shoot-out would take place. Villa quintet John Moyles, John Durkan, Keith Moran, John Judge and man of the match John Casey all converted their spot-kicks, as did Killala’s initial five takers – Rory Gallagher, Johnny McNulty, Alan Murphy, John Clarke and Kevin Murray.
That meant sudden death, and there was still no separating them after Villa pair Tommy Humber and Kevin Langdon, and Killala subs Brendan Ryan and Ian McNulty, all made no mistake. Momme Reibisch put Villa back in front, although Seán McHale got a hand to his penalty, and it went off the crossbar. Marc McDonnell had to score to keep Killala in the tie, but Eugene Carlin made a fine stop, and all heaven broke loose for the eight-year-old club by the river.
