SSE Airtricity Premier Division
Waterford FC made it three Premier Division wins on the bounce as second-half substitute Junior Quitirna struck a golden winning goal against Drogheda United at Head in the Game Park in the SSE Airtricity Premier Division this evening.
Dinny Corcoran should have broken the deadlock on three minutes when he fired a Ronan Murray left-wing cross wide before Mark Doyle was just off target for the hosts with a decent effort soon afterwards.

Waterford FC 0 – Drogheda 7
Men against Boys is the simple way to put it.
It’s important to remember that all the events which played out on the field happened between a senior team who are mid-table and an U19 side who haven’t played a competitive game since December 5th.
In the early goings, Drogheda applied steady pressure on the home side, earning a corner in the 6th minute.
An aimless kick out from the Blues goalkeeper returned possession to the visitors allowing an attack to be formed, but Drogheda were unable to capitalise on their efforts.
The U19 side were not short on confidence, hassling and harrying the Drogs, in so doing, mostly pinning them back into their own half.
