Massive well done to Justin Burke and the NEFL committee for another massively successful awards night!

Two of our players picked up individual awards on the night, Guilherme Alexandre picked up his award for ‘Top Assister’ with his 17 assists as well as 15 goals scored in 17 league appearances, what a season he had.
Our main man between the sticks Wesley Capile Silva picked up the ‘Golden Glove’ awards with 5 clean sheets in 12 games.

NEFL Result :

Cootehill Harps 0-2 Sporting BJD FC

The lads took on Cootehill Harps Saturday evening in a very competitive game. Three weeks without football seen us start slow and Cootehill started the brightest with willing runners running behind. We did manage to settle and started to make passes controlling the tempo of the game. Some great forward passes found Luan who dribbled into the box and was taking down and was awarded a penalty. Luan stepped up and buried it 1-0 to the visitors. Neither team really managed to create much else for the remainder of the half , 1-0 HT. Second half with us in control the game plan was to be compact and that we were all over the pitch our defence well on top dealing with a lot of crosses , Again our man of the match Karabo winning every single second ball and duel making us hard to break down. Luan again done brilliantly when he dribbled past three Cootehill Defenders and was unlucky not to score when the keeper pulled of a fantastic save but luckily Bless was alive to react and tap home to give us a 2-0 cushion. Cootehill did nearly reply though when Karabo had to clear one of the line , and they threw everything at us but great credit to the lads who showed serious fight to claim all three points at the end. Our man of the match was Karabo who was excellent again 👏 best of luck to Cootehill for the rest of the season.

NEFL Gerry Reilly semi final result :

Aston Celtic 2-2 Sporting BJD FC

Aston win 4-2 on penalties.

An injury ridden team made the trip to Drogheda Sunday morning with a lot of lads not available due to injuries. But we started the game brightly and was on the front foot from the start , 1st half was a real 50/50 affair but we found ourselves 1-0 down when their 9 struck the ball early into the bottom corner, moments later Bless replied with a worldie into the top corner to draw the teams level at 1-1 at HT.

2nd half we got a hold of the game and were really unlucky when we missed 3 massive chances to send the game our way. But again both teams couldn't find that all important 2nd goal.

ET both teams looking to get the next goal found it difficult with both defences on top , we thought we won it with three minutes to go when Aaron Reilly scored directly from a wicked corner but in the last kick off the game Aston drew level when their 9 found himself free in the 6 yard box.

The dreaded penalties for both sides , we came up short in them but we can be so proud of the lads they gave everything missing so many key players but that's football we'll learn and go forward now in the league. Best of luck to Aston in the final and also a massive thanks to the referee who was outstanding all game who officiated the game really well with both sides really going for it. 🟢⚪️⚫️🟡

NEFL Result :

Raharney United 3-6 Sporting BJD FC

The lads made the early trip up to Raharney Sunday morning , missing some key players with injuries and lads playing through injuries meant we were in for a difficult game.

Raharney were intent from the start and really took the game to us, but we managed to settle and were creating chances. Conor Kelly broke the dead lock with a tidy finish to give us the lead. Minutes later Raharney replied when they were gifted a goal from a goalkeeping error. But momentum swung in Raharneys favour and they scored two goals within minutes to make it 3-1 and it felt like game over. 3-1 HT.

Half time we adjusted a few things and knew that we needed to show character to turn things around , shakes came on for Djalma and slotted in very comfortably in centre back allowing us to push Lee into midfield to try get us back into the game , we created massive moments but couldn't finish them off but kept going and believing we could turn things around Bless made it 3-2 and it was game on.

We seen the introduction of John and Valters and they immediately made an impact pinning back Raharney and we were thrown a lifeline when Luan was taking out inside the box and we were awarded a penalty , up stepped Luan to make it 3-3 , a minute later Karabo made it 4-3 when John hung up a delightful cross to the back post where Karabo headed home.

As the game went on we were getting stronger and our man of the match Joseph Gaffney drove through and made it 5-3 with a fantastic finish to give us breathing space. With minutes left Aaron sealed the victory when he bended the ball around the defender to find the top corner to give us all three points , a tough game physically and mentally but we found a way which sometimes is the best way to win games. Man of the match was Joseph Gaffney who was outstanding defensively and came up with a massive goal. Best of luck to Raharney for the rest of the season a great club with fantastic facilities. 🟢⚪️⚫️🟡
