The visitors, with a few Internationals in their ranks, found Erris tougher then expected. It was 1-1 at the end of the opening half thanks to a Tom Ivan goal. Shortly into the second half Celtic went in front from the penalty spot, but Erris were soon back level when Gary Boylan slotted home with 20 minutes to go. The Manager, Michael S. Togher was delighted with the way the side preformed in the very wet conditions. Well done everyone and keep up the good form.
