EC JAFC Glenbower Rovers v St Catherines
Glenbower Rovers 2-14 St. Catherines 1-09
Glenbower Rovers cruised into the last
four
of the ‘Michael O’Connor Motor Factors’ East Cork JAFC with a convincing and impressive win over St. Catherines in Youghal last Saturday evening. The manner in which
the Killeagh men went about their business was nothing short of ‘Foot Per- fect’ and full forward and Captain Sean Long caught the eye with some very im- pressive
scores including
two well taken goals. Rovers were on the
scoreboard through Kieran Lane on the second minute with a free and the excel- lent Sean Long had his first score of the evening two
minutes later. St Cathe- rine’s did get a point back on the eighth minute with a placed ball effort from Dan Mangan, but
then
Glenbower Rovers went into over drive
scoring
a goal and seven points without reply in a sixteen -minute spell of complete dominance. They played some superb football and gave an exhibition of kick passing with Stephen Mur- phy in particular catching the eye. Sean Long had three points from play and a goal in the fourteenth minute, plus there were scores from Matthew Murphy and Johnny
O’Connor @eastcorkjournal / #eastcorkjournal who had a brace each as Glen-
bower stretched clear.. St
Scorers for Glenbow- Catherines scored
three more first half scores, but Rovers replied with three
of their own be-
fore the short whistle with Glenbower in front by elev- en points.
As a contest the game
was really over, but to their credit St Catherine’s fought hard in
the second half
with a goal from Conor Kearney late on and a few well taken scores from Dan Mangan, but Kieran Lane was pin point accurate with his two second half frees and Shane Long pounced on a defensive error with lethal force to slot home his second goal as Glenbower march on into the semi-fi- nal. They will now park the big ball for the remainder of the summer confident in the knowledge that they will challenge for honours later in the season.
