Jersey sides dominate inter-island cup ties
IT WAS a bad weekend for Guernsey in inter-island cup football competition as Jersey sides won all four matches.
In the Jeremie Cup, St Paul's come from a goal down to beat Northerners 3-1 at Northfield thanks to two goals from Jack Boyle and an injury-time third from substitute Kieran Lester. Sam Murray had given the home side the lead at Northfield.
‘We had a game plan and we nearly executed it,' said North coach William Woodford. 'Whether it be a lack of concentration or just natural tiredness because we are not used to playing a side who are going to have far more ball than us, maybe it’s that, but the game plan nearly worked and perhaps it should have.'
Also in the Jeremie, JTC Wanderers defeated Bels 6-1 at the Track.
In the Wheway Cup, Rovers lost 5-1 at St Peter while St Martin's were beaten 2-0 by Rozel Rovers.
