Buncrana development footballers have kept their winning form two games into the new season of the Marley Travel Division two B. Shane McClean and Sean Daly got points in the first five minutes before Termon halved the Buncrana advantage in the sixth minute. An eighth-minute Shane MCClean point was quickly cancelled out in the ninth minute. However, Liam Jordan came and got a Buncrana goal in the 12th minute but Termon clocked another point at the quarter mark.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t plain sailing as Terom capitalised from an own goal in the 17th minute with another Termon point following as they got 1-2 in five minutes. Two more Buncrana points and a Termon point closed the first half. Both teams were level at halftime on a scoreline of 1-5 to 1-5. Buncrana may have had the first half wind but having clinched a win against Saint Nauls the previous week by a point, things were bound to get intense. Termon took the lead as the second half began but Liam Jordan, Shane McClean and Adrian Doherty all had their shooting boots on as Buncrana pulled ahead by two points.
Termon and Buncrana traded a score each before the 50th minute. A late consolation Termon point came with four minutes. The final score read Buncrana 1-9 Termon 1-8. Buncrana host Fanad Gaels next time round as both sides hope to capitalise from wins,.
