O'LOUGHLIN GAELS V MOONCOIN
O'Loughlin Gaels 2-14 to 0-12 Mooncoon
O’Loughlin Gaels minors learned a few valuable lessons on Saturday evening in a breezy Ballyhale to overcome Mooncoin in the first of this year’s County Semi-Finals. Mooncoin put on a fine first half performance with their mid-field duo taking advantage of the strong breeze and some wayward marksmanship by the O’Loughlins attack. The men from the south headed into the second half with a six point advantage. The second half proved different story however with the O’Loughlin’s forwards finding their radar. In truth the delivery to the forwards was much improved from the first half probably due to the strong breeze. Pat Byrne was introduced into the action at half time and quickly made an impact with a fine goal six mins into the half. Cian Loy soon found his scoring prowess and pointed his second of three points two minutes later. Sean Bolger was flying thoughout the game and pointed for the second time next. The game was definitely turning in the St. Johns side favour now and some fine performances were popping up around the field. Conor Heary and Robbie Buckley were dominating their areas and providing intelligent ball to a now confident attack. Shane Maher pointed three of his frees and Cian Loy found the net thirteen minutes into the second half that eased the sizeable St. Johns support. It was a professional ending to the half from then on and the lads eased to a county Final date in two weeks time. Well done to all involved and good luck.
Team:
Ben Maher , Jordan Molloy, Gary Bryan, Jay Leahy, Jack Lawler, Robbie Buckley, Conor Heary, Thomas Gleeson, Shane Mahon, Ross Butler, Sean Bolger, Daniel O'Connor, Shane Maher, Tervine Wallace, Cian Loy, Pat Byrne, Robbie O'Driscoll, Eoin Wall
