Corduff Notes

Under  14 Championship Final :  Pride of place this week goes to our Under 14 Champions who defeated Magheracloone in the Championship final last Tuesday. Although Corduff were ahead for most of the game it was still an exciting and trilling game of football and showed all the supporters who came to cheer the boys on that the future of Corduff football is bright. Corduff got off to a great first quarter scoring 1-09 in total and 1-03 coming before Magheracloone got off the mark. Sean Mc Enaney, Fionnan Cassidy, Sean Burns and Killian Hand were all on the score sheet while Colm Lowndes connected with a low ball from Fionnan Cassidy to hit the back of the Magheracloone net. Score after the first quarter stood at Corduff 1-08 Magheracloone 0-01. Magheracloone came out of the traps first in the second half and despite the best efforts of Peter Clinton, Cillian Marron and Jamie King they hit the back of the Corduff net, Corduff responded with a goal of their own after some hard work from Fergal Hanratty and Denis Ward. Magheracloone added 1-02 before the end of the quarter leaving the score line Corduff 2-09 Magheracloone 2-03. Again  Magheracloone came out of the traps first in the third quarter  with a point before Corduff rallied after some good defending from Glen Robinson,  Dylan Mc Enaney and Michael Connolly.  Sean Burns, Fionnan Cassidy and Fergal Hanratty slotted over 4 points before Fionnan Cassidy connected after a ball from Michael Connolly to register Corduff 3^rd goal. The Third quarter ended Corduff 3-14 to 2-06. Ronan Connolly, Eugene Russell  and David Crossan  came on and added fresh legs and help maintain Corduff’s lead in the final quarter. Sean Burns scored Corduff opening score this was before Magheracloone went on to register 3 unanswered points  which could have been more only for a goal line save from Corduff Jamie King. Final Score Corduff 3-15 Magheracloone 2-09
