Glenbeigh / Glencar B 4-05, Templenoe B 1-14
The Templenoe B team finally got their season underway with an away fixture to Glenbeigh / Glencar on Friday evening. Conditions were ideal for football, with a dry pitch and a very mild breeze.
Templenoe had the better of the exchanges in the first half, but had to overcome the concession of an early goal scored by the Glenbeigh / Glencar full forward. Through a dominant display from the visitor’s midfield, Templenoe picked off a series of points throughout the half, and the half time whistle saw a scoreline of Glenbeigh / Glencar 1-02, Templenoe 0-08. Danny Cahalane scored the pick of the points in the first half.
Templenoe continued to dominate for the opening period of the second half, and a scoring cameo from Martin Reilly, who notched 1-01 in the space of a minute, seemed to set the visitors up for a comfortable victory.
Coming into the last ten minutes Templenoe were still in control, but the concession of three goals to Glenbeigh / Glencar in this period saw the home team pull off a very unlikely draw.
Templenoe Team:
Tommy Granville, Jonathan Egan, Kieran O’Neill, Mike Jones, John Rice, Joey Sheehan, Kieran McCarthy, Shane Cremin, Donal Casey, Martin Reilly, John Moriarity, Padraig O’Sullivan, Patrick Palmer, Danny Cahalane, Noel O’Sullivan.
Subs: Darren Cremin, Will Sheehy
