Shamrocks 2-8, Douglas (2) 1-7
This was a hard fought win against Douglas 2. Eventhough it was the visitors second team, it was clear from early on that every one of them could hurl, especially in the forwards so the result in the end was pleasing.
However, playing against the wind in the second half, they upped their game considerably and dominated the second half. to run out deserved winners on a scoreline of 2-8 to 1-6 when scores were hard to come by.
Donal Herlihy poked home the deciding goal with 13 minutes left to open a 6 point lead and Calum Fitz in goal and the back held out with some good saves and defending.
