U21's fall to St Margaret's in D championship

Spirited late fightback not enough

Cold day in Silverpark, although thanfully it remained dry.

Crokes were up against a physically strong St Margaret's side who quickly got into their stride and finished the first half strongly, courtesy of three well-taken goals.

The home side did come into the game more in the second period, cheered on by the small but vociferous and enthusiastic support. However, the visitors held on to win comfortably in the end.
