Minor hurling Semi final Vs Slieverue Sat 12th Oct
The Dunnamaggin Minor Hurlers reached the co final in dramatic fashion in Mullinvat on Saturday afternoon. In a highly entertaining game Dunnamaggin came from five points down at one stage in the second half to win this semi final with a last minute goal from Captain Andrew Fitzpatrick. Dunnamaggin were dealt a major blow when 10 Mins in when Victor Costello was forced off with a suspected broken Collar bone. This saw Ryan Thomas come into the game. Points from Ronan Coffey (1) and Ray Cody (3) and a Goal from Paul Kirwan on the stroke of half time had Dunnamaggin trailing by two at half time.
Brian Farrell entered the fray at half time for Luke Fitzpatrick as Dunnamaggin did start the second half well with a quick point from Ronan. Dunnamaggin followed this up by one from John Fitzpatrick and another from Ronan about 10 min in but Slieverue were also scoring in what was turning out to be a real tit for tat affair. Slieverue stretched their lead to four before points from John Fitzpatrick and Ray Cody with the minimum remaining on the clock separated them by two again. Then came the Killer blow for Slieverue who seemed destined for the Final but Dunamaggin captain Andrew Fitzpatrick had other ideas when he found the net. The resultant puck out, saw the Referee blow the final whistle. This now sets up a repeat of the league final against neighbour Carrickshock next sat venue TBA.
