REGULAR FOLLOWERS OF the SSE Airtricity League will know that Chris Forrester is one of the domestic game’s most technically gifted players.
The St Patrick’s Athletic midfielder has a habit of scoring memorable goals and he added another one to his collection last night at Richmond Park.
Patrick Vieira brought his Manchester City Elite Development squad to Inchicore for a friendly, at the end of which the League of Ireland Premier Division side were 3-2 winners.
It was Forrester who opened the scoring for the Saints in the 14th minute. After a patient build-up, Greg Bolger carved the City defence open with a pinpoint left-footed pass. The ball found Forrester on the edge of the box and he applied the finish after a sublime first touch.
Pat’s will be hoping for more of the same when they aim to secure a seventh consecutive league win at home to Galway United tomorrow night.
