U14s Progress in Quarter Final Thriller!!
Hibs were away to Ennis Town in the Division 1 Cup Quarter final tonight.
Ennis Town started the quicker and took a 1 nil lead early on. Midway through the first half Hibs got themselves level through a Liam Murphy penalty.
The equaliser didn't last long as Ennis took advantage of a mix up in the Hibs back line and got back in front before half time.
HT 2-1
Hibs came out strong in the second half and really looked more likely to score and finally the breakthrough came with a Kian Dempsey goal.
2-2
Both teams tried hard to find a winner and with just a few minutes from full time Ennis Town got their third goal of the match and what surely looked like the winner.
Hibs never gave up and won themselves a free kick on the half way line deep into injury time. Daryll Bryant floated the ball into the box which was cleared back out to Ade Adeniyi on the right wing who crossed the ball back into the packed penalty area to find Denis Martsenyuk who headed it into the back of the net.
FT 3-3
10 minutes each way of extra time to come and the drama was not over.
Ennis Town took the lead once again in the first half of extra time.
Hibs never gave up hope and with 1 minute left of the match Kian Dempsey picked up the ball on the left wing and with a surging run past the Town defence scored as Hibs equalised for the forth time in the match.
4-4 AET
HIBS WIN 5-4 on pens
