No luck for as Aghada lost a cracker of a game
This was as good a game as your would ever see but to no avail
Carrignavar started the stronger with a goal after 2 minutes and three
wides it looked bad for our lads then the point of the year form Mark
Lewis who soloed from his own forty leaving all in his wake and a
sweet strike from the hurley for our opening score on the 8th minute.
Captain Aidan Cotter started to out hurl the Carrig men at mid field
and suddenly Aghada bagged two goals from the poacher Tony Wall after
Cian Fleming set the two up as we entered the second Quarter. Two
mighty points followed one for Fleming and the other from Aidan Cotter.
Back came Carrignavar with two points before a long range Fleming
shot found its way to the net. Closely followed by to minors to put
Aghada ahead 3-5 to 1-2 with two minutes to half time. Little did
we think that it would be a point from Alan Creedon on the 49th m
before we would score again? Carrig closed out the half with two quick
points half time score 3-5 to 1-4.
With in 5 minutes of the restart Carrig had 1-4 in the bag and were
level, two more minors were added to take the lead on the 47th minute
before Creedon pulled one back. Aghada were now back in the game.
Fleming levelled again but a Carrig goal but paid to that. Then came
a gem from Davie Creedon when he plucked a ball out of the air and
made no mistake level again. Fleming put Aghada ahead again but back
came Carrig with a major and three minutes left on the clock. A point
from Mark Lewis made it a one point game and from the puck out Tony
Wall was unlucky not to level the game.
