O'Loughlin Gaels 1-14 1-14 Erins Own
The seniors came away from Jenkinstown tonight relieved probably to share the spoils. Playing with 14 men from the 4th minute after Martin Comerford was shown the line, the lads were the better side throughout the first half ending it with a 4 point advantage helped by a well taken Mark Bergin goal. (1-7 to 0-6) .After a fractious first half marred with various melees referee John Kennedy was never going to allow the game to become too co...ntentious and felt obliged to blow the whistle at every opportunity. Free taker Mark Kelly was clinical with the dead ball and accounted for all of O'Loughlins scores in the second half. 'Comer did get a goal early in the second half, but only after a brilliant save from the on form Stephen Murphy, and went ahead temporarily. Paddy Deegan won ball after ball and helped drive the lads on to keeping the league points available for the taken. One league point from this game was well earned and indeed a valuable one as we pass the half way mark on this campaign.
