Rare scoreless draw for Scarva

After 90 minutes of Saturday’s Division Two clash at Scarva Park, however, neither Scarva Rangers nor Armagh Celtic could find the net.

On the plus side for Scarva Rangers manager Mo Brown was the clean sheet his side kept.

Dean McCammon was sent clear by an incisive through ball from Wes Baird in the first half but the visiting keeper saved smartly at his feet.

Early in the second half Celtic put together a dangerous attacking move. Scarva goalkeeper Ritchie McGivern saved brilliantly and Rod Douglas superbly blocked a follow-up effort.

Douglas almost broke the deadlock but his headed effort from a corner sailed just over the bar.

McCammon embarked on a surging run down the left and pulled the ball back precisely for Stephen Hendron but his shot was wide of the target.

Late in the game Mark Baird drove into the Celtic penalty area and crossed for McCammon but his shot failed to find the back of the net.

Man of the Match – Wes Baird.
