FAOI 16: Ballymac 2-10 Castleisland Desmonds 3-06
Last Sunday evening we played Castleisland Desmonds in the final of Castleisland District. Things didn’t go our way in the first half and we went in at the break eight points down. Things didn’t look good for us as we faced a stiff breeze in the second half but the management had other ideas and got the lads going and they came out all guns blazing. Slowly now the boys started to pick away at the score board and with our defence now on top, and with a minute to go and trailing by two points our boys made one final push and stuck the ball into the back of the net. We now took the lead for the first time in the game which we were to hold until the final whistle. Great credit must be given to the players for their never say die attitude and to the management team of John Creagh, Gerard Regan and Liam Mc Elligott. Keelan Brosnan collected the trophy on behalf of his team mates and gave a wonderful speech in which he thanked Castleisland for a great game of football, referee Jim O Connor and complimented Cordal on their new field which was in excellent condition.
