East Kerry Minor Championship: Spa 3-11 Firies 3-15
Spa welcomed Firies on Sunday afternoon in the EK Minor Championship play-off and although Spa had a one point lead at half time, Firies put in a very strong second half to win out by four.
Spa had a strong opening half and kept the Firies keeper busy, but did get one goal at the end of the first quarter from Michael Horgan. The Firies goal came shortly before half time from Darragh O'Donoghue, and at the break Spa were leading 1-8 to 1-7.
Firies had a great third quarter and with an unanswered 2-6 they raced into a big lead at 3-13 to 1-8. Spa kept the pressure on the Firies keeper but two late penalties, both finished to the net by Liam Spillane, reduced the gap to 3-11 to 3-15 at the end.
Spa Team: Ollie Cremin, Diarmuid Cahill, Liam Spillane, Conor Brosnan, Thomas Cronin, Connie Cremin, Keith Myers, Michael Kearney, Calum Neher, Oisin Walsh, Cian Murphy, Ryan Kelliher, Alan O’Sullivan, Michael Horgan, Roiri O’Connor. Subs: Donagh Fahy, Rian O’Neill
