Sugarloaf make point on their top flight debut

SUGARLOAF FC'S first ever top flight Wicklow League encounter saw them take a well earned point off journeymen St. Peter's Bhoys on Sunday. The 'Loaf took a surprise first-half lead through winger Eoin McMahon who opened his account for the season with a stunning long-range effort. Fellow winger Emmet Lawless switched flanks, spreading the ball out left to McMahon. The number 11 was halted initially by his marker but the ball then bounced up invitingly for him and he took all by surprise; sending a beautiful dipping effort flying over the head of Shane Gallagher in the Saints goal from all of 25 yards.
