Previous match: 

 

A controlled performance, especially in the second half, saw Harlesden Harps claim their first trophy of the season with an impressive McCardle Cup win against fellow Junior competitors, St Clarets. A good dry day for football saw a tight opening half from two teams giving their all with nothing to separate them at the break, 0-07 to 1-04. Harps opened the second half the stronger and gradually gained the upper hand with plenty of impressive scores from Ryan McSherry, long range specialist Darren Murphy and a crucial goal from club stalwart Ashley O’Halloran to see us triumph on a scoreline of 1-12 to 1-09. A great start to the season, tougher games to come of course but plenty to be confident about for the upcoming Junior campaign.
