Ballymun came out of the blocks at full tilt and started pulling away from Syls keeping a fair share of the came at the wrong end of the pitch.  But Syls came back with a couple of points and Simon Owens scoring three goals to leave us ahead at half time.

The second half was very hard fought with both teams showing periods of dominance.  In the end Syls defence with the had to pull out all the stops to hold onto the lead.
