Youths Division 1
Clonmel Celtic 8-0 Peake Villa
Clonmel Celtic Youths gave early notice of their intent this season in the Tipperary Southern and District League (TSDL) with an 8-0 demolition job of Peake Villa in their first league game of the season.
This was an impressive performance from Celtic, who had Villa on the backfoot all afternoon. Celtic played some lovely football but had to wait until the 22nd minute for the lead when the lively Jack Aylward fired low to the net.
They doubled their lead on 30 minutes when Cillian Fitzgerald swept the ball home when it broke to him in the box. Celtic took this 2-0 lead to the break.
There was no let-up for Villa in the second half and Jack Aylward completed his hat-trick by the hour mark, although he was fortunate with a lucky ricochet for his second.
Celtic were in total control at this stage and added four more with goals from David Wall and Brandon Tracey and clever finishes from Dylan McCormack and Luke Hannigan.
