Larne exit Irish Trophy in defeat to Galway side

Determined to continue their cup run, Larne were the better team in the early stages moving the ball well and putting the away side under pressure. Larne squandered a series of good chances and were made to pay when the ball broke kindly for NUIG and they slotted home to break the deadlock.

In the second half Larne picked up where they had left off, however Galway were now settled into the game and playing some good hockey themselves looking dangerous on the break and from penalty corners.
