Luckless Bandon fall to Crescent
In a repeat of last year’s decider, won by the West Cork school on penalty strokes, Bandon more than matched a powerful Crescent side stride for stride, but a crash ball in the dying seconds of the first half took a double deflection and found a route to goal.
Under new guidelines adopted in September, any touch in the circle can now cause a goal, whereas previously a long corner would have ensued if the only touch in the D came off a defensive stick.
