This week was an unfortunate one for City's u20s as they went out of the u20 league after a 1-0 defeat away to Tralee Dynamos .
Knowing that a win would have been enough to see City qualify into the knockout stages from pool 4, the rebel army started brighly with Simon Holland and Kieran Kenneally troubling the Tralee goal before Willie Heffernan's shot hit the post after 18 mins. City dominated possession in the first 45 mins but failed to turn that into goal chances .
On 65 mins , City went a goal down when Ian O'Sullivan was beaten in the City goal by Jason Higgins header .
City mainly through the efforts of Simon Holland attempted to get an equaliser but sadly it never came. Results eslewhere in the group meant that Mervue United and Salthill Devon qualified for the knockout stages of the u20 league from pool 4.
City team: Ian O'Sullivan, Jason Higgins, Gary Buckley, Alan Sheehan(Danny Morrissey 64 mins) , Dalian Roche, Willie Heffernan, Wayne Burton(Brendan Cullan 54 mins) , Keith O' Sullivan, Simon Holland, Kieran Kenneally, Eoin Mc Greevey .
