It was an entertaining derby without a doubt. We started out like lightening and lord knows how we didn't go 2-0 up in the first 10 minutes. We played some excellent football and only let ourselves down by not being clinical enough in the shooting department. Fair play to Trinity, they dug in and stopped us from doing our thing at times. But with that sole intention of trying to stop us playing football, they were hardly going to set the world on fire when it came to them trying to score a goal.
Fans and players were equally bewildered by the man in blacks decision to award us a penalty. Newsh took it, quite lucky for him it bounced off the inside of the post taking it inside the net. I seriously thought he'd missed it for a second. The gods were certainly with us today as the second seemed to ricochet off a trinity player and end up in their own goal.
I would however argue that in balance, we deserved the victory through our posession and attacking play and the lack of threat from Trinity. Their goal simply came from poor marking from a corner and really should of been avoided. I think the fans certainly did us proud and cheered the lads on throughout the match. The managers can have no complaints in that department tonight. A hard thought win by every player today, showing just how well we work as a unit. Well done to all the players.
Looking forward to the draw now on Monday !
