In what was a close affair Golden/Kilfeacle had drawn level before Cian Mooney’s goal helped send Eire Og Annacarty Donohill on their way to victory.

The first half was a fairly even affair with Cian Mooney’s goal the difference between the sides at half time.  Eire Og  led at the break 1-7 to 0-6.

Early in the second half the  game was then held up for a few minutes due to an injury to both Michael O’Brien and Daithi Bargary.

After two points for Golden from John Colohan frees levelled proceedings  Eire Og turned on the style in the last few minutes.

David Fox’s free on the dugout side of the field went straight to the hand of Cian Mooney who turned inwards for goal burying into the far bottom corner.
