Audio: ‘We went at them like a day’s work’ says Kildrum striker William Lynch

WILLIAM LYNCH says Kildrum Tigers went at Erne Wanderers ‘like a day’s work’ to get a place in the fifth round of the FAI Junior Cup.

Kildrum came from two-nil down at half-time to win 4-2, with Lynch’s cracking free-kick putting them 3-2 ahead.

James Melly, Declan Curtis and Ethan Coll were also on the mark for Shane Brown’s team, who looked in danger of crashing out when first Barry Mulligan and then Shane McGrath netted for Erne.

“We showed great character in the second half,” Lynch told Donegal Sport Hub.

“We rolled up the sleeves and went at them like a day’s work. We got four goals in the second half and we’re away to Limerick next week full of confidence.

“They didn’t know what hit them at the start of the second half. We lifted the intensity, every man started to work and they couldn’t handle us. Fair play to the boys, everyone dug in.”

Kildrum are on their way to Abbeyfeale United in south Limerick this Sunday and the St Johnston men – joint top of the Premier Division alongside Drumoghill FC – are dreaming big again.

Lynch said: “I remember when I was younger coming through we had a couple of big days away in the Intermediate Cup. We’re grown up now and hopefully we can push on. There’s no reason we can’t get a run in this competition.”
