Braine Storming

Match Report: FC Irlande 2-0 Braine Storming

FC Irlande returned to Nossegem this weekend to face a strong Braine Storming team. After a slow start, it was Sylvain who unlocked the defense with a brilliant Zidane-esque pass to Ciarán, who slotted the ball past the keeper off the post for the opening goal. 1-0.

Just two minutes later, Luke made a surging run, leaving the opposition keeper stranded as he calmly finished for his first goal of the season. The 2-0 lead gave us control, with the second half seeing some excellent passages of play, though we were unlucky not to score more.

Zizou Penouilh was the maestro in midfield, pulling the strings as the team cruised to a well-deserved 4th consecutive victory. The defense, led by a solid backline, never looked threatened for the full 70 minutes.

Next up: a trip to the Brits on the 11th of January to continue the momentum. Merry Christmas one and all🎄🎅

MOTM: Sylvain

Firsts travelled to Genappe to face Braine Storming, dominated the 1st half & took the lead through Ciaran, great half volley after a sweeping 5 man move. HT 1-0, dominated again in the 2nd half bit conceded against the run of play from a defensive slip. Pushed until the end, had a few chances & should have scored before a great Rachid header from a corner was disallowed right at the end, marginal call. 1-1 result. Motm Nair.
