Monkstown 2 (G Cole 2) Banbridge 2 (C Curry, B McCandless) The game ebbed and flowed with goalmouth scrambles at both ends before the deadlock was broken in the 34th Minute as Jonny McKee created a chance wrapping the ball around the back post where Chris Curry was waiting to turn it in, putting Banbridge one up. Monkstown were level four minutes after the restart as Nick Dee provided a pass for Geoff Cole to fire into the backboard. He added a second in the 47th minute as he deflected a Davy Carson pass from the endline. Banbridge equalised with 13 munites to go as Bruce McCandless turned in a rebound from a David Fitzgerald save. Banbridge were soon down to nine men after two players were yellow carded but Monkstown failed to take advantage, and the game finished two-apiece. [Reference: 3]
