The Letterkenny Rovers team which faced Ringmahon in Cork last week.

The seniors travelled to Cork last weekend and came back with a  1-1 draw against Ringmahon Rangers in the intermediate Cup semi final after an incredible finish which sets up a replay at Leckview Park on Sunday April 17th.
It could have been so much better as we conceded an injury time equaliser after Steve Okakpo-Emekas opened the scoring on 14 minutes. The dream of a final is very much alive and lets hope we have a big support to cheer us on in the replay.
The seniors have another big game this Sunday when we are on our travels to Portmarnock in the FAI Cup first round. Kick off is at 230pm.
The u16s have won their opening two group games in the champions league defeating Swilly Rovers 6-2 and Lifford Celtic 3-1. Goals from Brandon Manues (2), Michael Gallagher (2), Conor O’Donnell and Joseph McGill helped defeat Swilly while O’Donnell with a brace and McGill netted against Lifford. They need a point from their last game at St Catherines on Saturday to ensure qualification. That kicks off at 11am.
