A great team performance at Coleraine against an equally determined Institute team. This was a tight affair with the Colts holding their own all over the pitch. In the 17th minute after some good battling in midfield Aleisha Scullion was released and broke clear of the Institute defence and rifled a fantastic low shot into the corner of the net. Going behind however seemed to push Institute forward and though the defence cleared the danger with ease, Institute equalised after 35 mins when a corner passed through a number of players before going straight in at the back post and the half finished 1-1.
The second half was more of the same with great defending across the team and a real desire to get something out of the game and after a few half chances came and went for both teams the Colts celebrated their first point of the season. Great team performance with a special mention for Evan Andrews who was asked to play in defence rather than in goal and was exceptional, and Aleisha who scored a fantastic goal. final score a well earned and very credible 1-1
