Fr.O Neills 2:06 v Kanturk 3:08

We travelled to Mallow on Sun.evening to play Kanturk in the 2nd.rnd.of the Intermediate Hurling Lge.With injuries still being a problem we fielded a relatively young team once again,we started the game brightly and at a good pace and had 2:03 on the scoreboard after 15 mins.Kanturk scored a goal on the rebound from a close in free soon after and scored a second one from play a few minutes later,the sides went in level at the break.We were first to score in the second half but Kanturk replied once more,we were finding it more and more difficult to penetrate the Kanturk defence as the half wore on and they were rewarded with a third goal when a ball in from the wing deceived both our full back and Goalkeeper finishing up in the back of the net,we swoped points after that and were beaten on the above scoreline,a lenghty stopage happened early in the second half when Eoghan McCarthy was treated for concussion but thankfully Eoghan was fine afterwards in the dressing room.
