But on the basis of what Presentation Brothers College and Crescent Comprehensive produced for 35 minutes of this hotly disputed senior cup quarter-final at Musgrave Park yesterday, there isn’t much need to worry.

The two teams entered into the spirit of the game with a willingness to create and a desire to run and to parade the skills of speed, elusiveness and finishing power.
