It was a perfect day for football and the pitch was in excellent condition. We were under pressure right from the off and goalkeeper Conor Cummins was in action early on bringing off a few fine saves. Conor O\u2019Shea eventually opened the scoring in the eight minute with a well taken point from a free. Ballymacarbry followed up quickly with a point from play. A point from Kieran Kennedy and another free from Conor O\u2019Shea put us two up by the fifteenth minute. A Ballymacarbry goal and a point just before the interval left us trailing by two, St. Declan\u2019s 0-3 Ballymacarbry 1-2<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ecxMsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">We opened strongly at the start of the second half with Owen Oseni scoring a fine individual goal. Ballymacarbry evened up the game on five minutes with a point from play. There then followed a period of stalemate for about ten minutes. The western boys eventually added a point but this was quickly cancelled out by Kieran Kennedy\u2019s second point. Once again the teams were level. However with time running out the opposition added two late points to break our hearts.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ecxMsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Overall this was a very good campaign for our players with team captain Alex Brown always leading by example, unfortunately he was replaced in this game due to injury. Defenders Evan Hayes, Luke Underwood Doyle and Se\u00e1n Doocey worked very hard. Midfielder Ronan Power and forwards Jay Hearne, Victory Eddy-Atu and Kieran Kennedy were tireless throughout.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ecxMsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: small;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Congratulations to Ballymacarbry N.
