New York Minors back in action at Pearse Stadium Galway.
New York minors received something of a reality check this evening at Pearse Stadium, Galway when they were whitewashed by a powerfully built and superior Tribe side. In beautiful sunshine, Galway ran riot early and often and with a stiff breeze at their backs mostly kept the visitors pinned in their own half. New York ‘s defense couldn’t cope with a powerful Galway attack that looked like scoring with every sortie on the Big Apple goal. The Tribe shot four goals in the opening half and with New York down a man for a red card offense just before the break, the second half, despite a battling effort from the red, white and blue, was always going to be an uphill battle with Galway easing their way to a very easy victory.
