UCD WIN THE COLLINGWOOD CUP
UCD retained the trophy they won in 2009 to make it three University and College trophies in the first three months of 2010. With the start of the Airtricity on Friday night UCD can start the season on a high having won the Collingwood Cup, the premier University tournament, producing a performance of grit and determination holding strong through extra time and then the inevitable penalty shoot out to win 4-2, after a scoreless match.
UCD MOVE THROUGH THE GEARS TO ARRIVE AT THE FINAL
UCD advanced to the final of the 2010 Collingwood Cup with a dominant 1-0 win over University Ulster Jordanstown.
UCD CONTINUE PROGRESS WITH THE HELP OF PENALTIES
UCD passed into the Semi Final of the 2010 Collingwood Cup following a hard fought match against fierce rivals UCC winning 8-7 on penalties.
SLOW START TO COLLINGWOOD FOR CUP HOLDERS
UCD may have already won two intervarsity competitions in 2010 but UCD's start to the Collingwood Cup was ultimately successful but it was clear that there is more left in the tank.
UCD regain Collingwood!
UCD regained the Collingwood Cup they last held in 2007 with a narrow 1-0 win over NUIG in the final on Friday. A goal from former Shamrock Rovers forward Robbie Creevy sealed victory - a 25-yard chip which ducked just under the bar and which was the Galway side's only goal against from play in the whole tournament. NUIG had a penalty appeal turned down on the hour, but were reduced to ten men five minutes from the end, and Dave McMillan nearly put the issue beyond doubt shortly afterwards when another lob went just inches over the bar. However, the one goal was enough, and the Collingwood Cup is coming back home! UCD - C. Burke; O'Reilly (Doyle 30), Keaveney, Leahy, Lehane; Roche (Geoghegan 82), Dineen, Creevy, McMahon; D McMillian, Wilson (Whelan 76). Subs not used - P. Burke, O'Toole, McFlynn, McGroarty
