Kerry Petroleum Senior Club Championship Match Report, Spa V Templenoe

Kerry Petroleum Senior Football Club Championship, Group 2, Round 3.

Spa 1-03, Templenoe 0-06.

Templenoe and Spa renewed rivalries on a wet and showery afternoon on Sunday. The previous weekend’s results had blown this group wide open, to turn this game into a do or die clash for both teams. In the finish, after a low scoring and disappointing encounter, there was no separating the sides, but the result was enough to see Templenoe create more history by qualifying for the semi-final of this competition for the first time. While newly promoted Spa also had reason to be cheerful, as they retained their senior status for 2022, following Dr Crokes defeat to Kenmare in the other group game.

Templenoe had wind advantage for the first half and they also dominated possession, with Spa feeling the loss of their former County panellist Liam Kearney. However, it took 8 minutes for the first score to come courtesy of Killian Spillane and 2 minutes later the same player doubled the visitors lead with a second score from play. Templenoe had chances to copper fasten their lead, but they failed to capitalise. In the 12^th minute Josh Crowley Holland looked to be through on goal, only to pull his shot wide. Killian Spillane though did add a free shortly before the water break to make the score 0-00 to 0-03.

The second quarter saw Templenoe continue to control proceedings, but again they found a packed Spa defence difficult to breakdown and scoring opportunities were scare. Colin Crowley took on the 45 duties for Templenoe, he was unsuccessful with his first effort, but 4 minutes later he made amends by beautifully landing his second 45 attempt over the crossbar. In between Niall McCarthy had a point chance for Spa, but his effort went wide of the posts and remarkably Spa failed to register a score in the whole of the first half. However, Templenoe were far from out of sight, yet they did manage to tag on one more point through Brian Crowley before the interval.

Half Time Score: Spa 0-00, Templenoe 0-05.

The third quarter was turning into a bit of a horror show for Templenoe, when they were reduced to 13 players for separate incidents within 7 minutes of the restart. The loss of John Rice and Colin Crowley for the remainder of the game suddenly meant that the visitors were now facing somewhat of an uphill struggle despite their advantage on the scoreboard. Evan Cronin meanwhile scored a brilliant point from a difficult angle to finally get Spa off the mark after 34 minutes of play. It was game on now. Patrick Clifford was introduced for the visitors to try and restore calm. But Spa were now getting on more ball, with all the Templenoe players having to work that bit harder and soon after the margin was reduced to three points following a long range effort from Shane Cronin. Templenoe regrouped and reorganised well to effectively prevent any further scores for Spa in this quarter, to leave it 0-02 to 0-05 going into the second half water break.

The final quarter was real edge of the seat stuff. Michael Foley split the posts for the hosts to cut the margin to just 2 points. Then Stephen O’Sullivan was off target with a free for Templenoe, before a long ball in by Spa’s Ciaran Spillane was gathered by David Spillane, who turned and shot for a perfectly executed goal to put Spa in front for the first time in this contest after 58 minutes. Spa were now the ones trying to close the game out, but they then had Dara Moyihan red carded after he picked up a second yellow. Templenoe to their credit dug deep and despite missing another free immediately after the goal, they battled on and were rewarded when Killian Spillane converted a free well into injury time for their sole score in the second half. Indeed both sides subsequently had a chance each to grab a winner, but it was not to be. Although neither side were to know it at the full time whistle, the result would be enough for both teams to retain their senior status with Templenoe advancing to the semi final.

Well done to our players and management and very best of luck to all in the semi-final!

Kerry Petroleum Senior Football Club Championship Rnd 2 Match Report, Templenoe V Dr Crokes

Kerry Petroleum Senior Football Club Championship, Round 2.

Templenoe 3-09, Dr Crokes 1-10.

What a historic evening it was for Templenoe last Saturday, that will surely rank right up there with the best of them, after Templenoe overcame the Dr Crokes senior team for the first time in the club’s history. The win also means that Templenoe have now defeated every club in the county at some stage, be it in the county league or as in case of this contest a club championship game.

Make no mistake about it, Templenoe were full value for their win. The foundations for this famous victory were laid in the first 2 minutes, when Stephen O’Sullivan and Brian Crowley both got in on the end of two good team moves to bury ball past Shane Murphy to get the home side off to a dream 2 goals start . However, no one was getting carried away with the Templenoe players in particular remaining 100% focused with the task on-hand. Jordan Kiely replied with neat point from play, before Gavin White powered forward to force a good save from Mark Looney. A 45 resulted, but Shane Murphy’s effort went wide of the posts. This was no doubt a let off for Templenoe, but they heeded the warning and soon after Gavin Crowley and Killian Spillane found the range with two well taken scores. Tom Doyle and Brian Looney split the posts for the visitors to reduce margin back to 5 points, but Templenoe refused to let this unsettle them, with Killian Spillane adding another score to his tally to make it 2-03 to 0-03 at the end of the first quarter.

After the water break, Josh Crowley Holland showed great composure to kick a point on the run, after catching a ball out around the middle of the field. A brace of points followed from Brian Crowley and Killian Spillane to extend Templenoe’s lead to 9 points. Dr Crokes realising they now had a fight on their hands introduced David Shaw and then Kieran O’Leary gave them some hope with a badly needed score. Crokes had chances to reduce the lead further, but uncharacteristically for them they failed to hit the target with a number of point chances before the interval, although in between Tony Brosnan did show good technique to fire over points from play and from a placed ball.

Half Time Score: Templenoe 2-06, Dr Crokes 0-06.

Templenoe used the half time break to regroup and no doubt emphasised the importance of not letting Dr Crokes eat any further in their lead. A point from Colin Crowley preceded Templenoe’s 3^rd goal of the day, when Teddy Doyle found himself in a bit of space in front of the Crokes goal and he made no mistake with the finish. This set pulses racing with the home supporters daring to dream of a positive outcome. Templenoe now had a 10 points cushion and prior to the goal a spectacular overhead catch from Gavin Crowley in the half back line, prevented a likely goal chance for Dr Crokes. Templenoe’s purple patch continued with Stephen O’Sullivan popping the ball over the ball to extend their lead even further. But Dr Crokes were far from done and hit back with 3 unanswered points courtesy of Tony Brosnan (2) and Micheal Burns. Then came the penalty for Dr Crokes after the referee spotted a foul inside the square, Tony Brosnan stepped up and stroke it brilliantly passed Mark Looney. Suddenly the margin was back down to 5 points again. But then another crucial point from Colin Crowley, which also turned out to be Templenoe’s last score helped steady the ship going into the second half water break with the scoreboard reading 3-09 to 1-09.

Dr Crokes tested the resolve of the Templenoe defence rigorously in the last quarter, but the hosts remained resolute and answered all the questions asked. Indeed throughout the game the aggressive tackling, and turnovers forced by Templenoe was a joy to watch with all four of Templenoe’s County panellists Tadhg Morley, Gavin Crowley, Adrian and Killian Spillane leading by example in what a great team display with everyone including the subs that came on contributing. Templenoe too had their chances to increase their advantage in the final quarter, but just could not quite find the range. The closest Dr Crokes came for a second goal, was when David Shaw had a goal bound effort well stopped by Mark Looney. Instead the visitors had to settle with one last score from Tony Brosnan on an evening where things just didn’t go their way. Templenoe closed out the game efficiently and their first ever win in this competition was greeted with joy at the final whistle.

Final Score: Templenoe 3-09, Dr Crokes 1-10.

Before the game a minute silence was held in honour of the late Dr Crokes Patron Donie Sheahan.
