AGHADA HURLING AND FOOTBALL CLUB

Aghada made hard work of defeating Glanmire in sunny Carrigtwohill last Sat.

Aghada built up an early lead only for Glanmire to get two goals in as many minutes to add to their point earlier in the half, the first goal came came from a mix up between Shane O Connell and Michael Morressy with the Glanmire forward finding the net. . this was Glanmire's best spell they put Aghada under fierce pressure yet Glanmire went in at the brake only 2 points in the clear 2-1 to 0-5 .Things looked good for Glanmire as they had the wind to their backs in the second half. Some shroud moves by the Aghada selectors made a big improvement with Ger Hurley along with J P O'Connor busting into the game Thomas O'Neill doing fine work at centre field Aghada kept plugging away. Sub Dave O'Keeffe made inroads into the Glanmire defense. Hurley tapped over the points and the Wall brothers sewed up the back line. A high lobbing ball into the square caused Shane a bit of trouble when he had to make a double save . Amazingly Glanmire never scored in the second half to leave Aghada winners by 0-11 to 2-1. But this win was not without cost Shane O'Connell going with a leg injury to cause the Senior selectors some worry before the Clon match . Nigal Condon also had a bad knee injury after he scored a mighty point to give Aghada the lead. Team
