Broadford came into this match against the only team that has beaten them. They were not only here to show Lucan that they were an improved side but also to show the league that they were the best team. Unfortunately Broadford were without their skipper; Mark Wotton who is away. Broadford came into this game from the start domiating mid-field and pushing up well. Paddy Maughan was opening out well and with the support of Yohann. Ian leavy put the first goal on the table again keeping with his goal a game tally. Broadford were doing well but a few slip ups in defence caused the keeper to spring into action. On two occassions a free kick was giving on the right side of the box but Aaron Hunt keept everything out. Towards the end of the first half Lucan were starting to come into the game and with some excellent passing inside the box they equalised. Broadford dominated the second half leaving the keeper to do very little.
In the second half Broadford were unlucky but some excellent saves and an unbelievable header off the line from a Lucan defender kept the score at 1-1. Time was counting down and Broadford just couldn't score. They brought on current in form super sub Ben Davidson hoping that he would answer their prayers and he did. He delivered a beautiful ball across the box to set up Yohann who kept his cool to score the 90' minute winner. The reaction was like no other and celebration exploded throughout the pitch and sideline. The final whistle blew and broadford we ecstatic, nobody could take this away from them. They stay on top of the league with a three point league on the team below(the willows) but The willows also have a game in head. Broadford's next game is against Verona in Coolmine park. A game that is a must win if they are to win this league.
