We caught up with the Irish Senior Cup Quarter Final between Banbridge and Corinthian at Havelock Park on Saturday afternoon.

Corinthian applied the early pressure in the first quarter and their efforts were rewarded with a successful penalty corner strike from David Howard on the 10th minute for a 0 – 1 lead which they took into the second quarter.

Banbridge pulled it back to 1 – 1 at half time as captain Mark Cowan fired in a penalty corner from the edge of the circle with the last play of the half.

The young Banbridge side had a lively start to the second half with Adam McKee and Edward Rowe particularly busy in attack, creating a few chances. It took them a while to break down the stubborn Corinthian defence but a late penalty corner strike from Adam McKee was turned in by Matthew McKee . . .
