Halkirk vs Castletown (5-2)

James Mackintosh scores the first for Halkirk

Matthew Mackay heads in the 2nd

Kerr MacKay got sent off for this "last man" tackle on Matthew Mackay

I caught the first half of Halkirk vs Castletown. Castletown were on top early on and scored first. Halkirk came into the game late on and scored through James Mackintosh and a flick header by Matthew MacKay. Castletown's Kerr MacKay then got sent off for a last man foul on Matthew MacKay. Half-time 2-1. Halkirk went on to win 5-2 and I think young James Mackintosh scored a hat-trick despite having a penalty saved by Sean Milligan..
