In any other game, a phenomenal double-save would have been the stand-out highlight.
However, the Airtricity League First division clash between Cobh Ramblers and Shelbourne wasn’t your average, everyday, run-of-the-mill game. For starters, it took place in the greatest league in the world, with that comes a few expectations.
So really, this incredible double-save from Cobh keeper Paul Hunt was just par for the course. An acrobatic save from a header at the near post was followed up by an even more acrobatic save across to goal to prevent the rebound from crashing into the open net.

As amazing as that moment of magic was, there was arguably a more magical moment from Karl Caulfield, also of Ramblers.
Five minutes after the restart, Caulfield was played into the box with a perfectly-weighted through-ball. With his first touch, he produced a delightful chip that went sailing over the opposition goalkeeper’s head and into the corner of the net.
That goal turned out to be the game-winner, and the three points it earned saw his side go top of the First Division.
