HARD luck on Douglas in this Evening Echo Cork Co SHC clash at Pairc Ui Chaoimh where famed St. Finbarr’s avoided the unthinkable - the relegation scrap - by winning a cracker 2-16 to 2-15.

A POINT from a 50-metre free by Andreas Concannon in the 60th minute gave Ballingeary a dramatic victory in the Evening Echo IFC replay at Páirc Uí Rinn yesterday.

SOME terrific free-flowing football at Páirc Uí Rinn yesterday, Ballingeary and Castletownbere in a game to savour, one of the best finishes to a final in years failing to produce a winner in an Evening Echo Cork IFC decider that ebbed and flowed throughout.
