O’Farrell has final say for Midleton

Midleton CBS 3-8 Thurles CBS 0-16

Thurles CBS looked to have set up a repeat of last year’s final against St Flannan’s when they led by two points as the game drifted into injury time. It’s always a dangerous lead to protect and right on cue O’Farrell struck for the match-winning goal, leaving the Tipp lads no time to recover.

The Midleton full-forward tormented the Thurles defence throughout, bagging a hat-trick of goals and a point for good measure.
