MINOR VICTORY:

This didn’t let up until the final whistle went. Corduff were much better in all positions on the pitch as defenders , midfielders and forwards were all on the game. Congratulations to everyone involved as they progress ONWARDS TO THE FINAL!!

Corduff was the venue for the Div 2B Semi-Final between Corduff and Blackhill last Wednesday. Corduff opened strong and were ahead in the 3rd minute on 0-2 to 0-1. This was the last time Corduff would lead in this
match as Blackhill raised their first green flag in the 6th minute. Both teams continued to trade points with Corduff reducing the arrears and narrowing the margin to 2 points when Blackhill smashed home a second goal in the 23rd minute. Blackhill went in stronger at the interval with Corduff trailing by 4 points.

Blackhill added another goal to their tally and a rally of unanswered points pulling away comfortably by the final whistle on a score line of Corduff 0-11 Blackhill 3-16 booking themselves a place in the competition final.
