We’re level midway through the first half. st Kierans register another score from play, making light work of the supposed wind disadvantage.

GOAL: St Kierans 0-4 Dingle 2-1

And it’s Daithi Geaney to provide another thumping finish from Dingle, this one from the spot.

14.34 – GOAL: St Kierans 0-4 Dingle 3- 1

There’s goal number three for Dingle, and it’s Geaney again!! Paul again. he reacted quickest after Phil Galvin was stripped of the ball and the Dingle man stabbed the finish home with his toe.

But immediately, Dingle give St Kevins a lifeline as Ed Walsh is rugby tackled in the square. This one is threatening to boil over.

Tom McGoldrick, however, opts for placement instead of power and it’s SAVED!

Just a point in it now.

A vital score for Dingle, a free from Paul Geaney. Just their second point of the game, but St Kieran’s hit straight back again, O’Donoghue fouled en route to goal. no advantage given, so the free-kick is handed to James Walsh and he converts a handy one.

There was so much action at one time, I hope we managed to get a handle on most of it for you.

What was the shock of the day for you? Portumna (despite 12 points from Joe Canning) falling to Tourloughmore must be right up there.

Good night, safe home.
