Rushen hit back to reach final

Costain hits five for Peel

Old Boys’ hopes of a league and cup double were dramatically dashed on Saturday.

 

They were beaten 2-1 at home by Rushen in the Ascot Hotel Junior Cup semi-final.

 

The Combination One champions elect led 1-0 at the break through Craig Murphy but the southerners hit back through Matty Lamb and Tom Doherty to book their place in the final.

 

Peel set up a semi-final with Braddan by thrashing Combination Two side Castletown 9-1.

 

Aaron Costain was the star of the show with five goals.

 

Sam Gaunt, Will Morris, Shaun Quayle-Dillon and Ethan Herbert netted the others.

 

Tom Callister noticed the Town consolation from the penalty spot.
