Carbery’s historic win ends decades of frustration

Carbery Rangers 0-10 Cill na Martra 0-5

There were joyous scenes at the final whistle where an attendance of 5,293 stood to applaud a famous victory for the Rosscarbery and Ardagh district. Not only were they clapping for the victors, but more poignantly for the tiny Muskerry Gaeltacht of Cill na Martra who gave their all with endeavour and honesty.

But on this day of days for Carbery Rangers, they couldn’t but admit that they were beaten by a far slicker and stronger side.
