In their first friendly of the season, Monaghan United kicked off in Goretkeegan against Baldoyle United from Co. Dublin. The match was a high tempo entertaining game with both sides playing some good football. But in the end Monaghan United ran out 2-0 winners with new signing Lewis Brady grabbing both goals.
The were a lot of contenders for the Man of the Match award with some very strong performances in the Monaghan team but our Man of The Match award goes to forward Cian Bradley-Gillespue, who was a danger all match and a constant threat to the Baldoyle defence.
Next Wednesday (7th Sept) Monaghan United U-13’s are away to Clones Town in a Friendly Match. The club would like to ask all the parents and family members to come out and support the team.
