AUGUST 200 CLUB WINNERS
Glentoran 0 – 0 Coleraine
The teams shared the spoils in tonight’s entertaining game at the Bet McClean Oval. On a night dominated by robust defences, Glentoran can perhaps count themselves unlucky not to have taken all three points. A good performance underpinned by several excellent individual outings and a robust sense of teamwork can provide encouragement for the season ahead.
The game itself started brightly, with both teams passing the ball with intent in the early stages. Even from the outset, it looked like it might take a piece of individual brilliance or a mistake to break the deadlock.
