Naughton goal puts Charleville CBS on road to decider

Charleville CBS 2-13 Garbally College, Ballinasloe 1-8

The impressive Newtownshandrum corner-forward brilliantly scored Charleville’s first goal and then set up Ryan Clifford for a match-clinching second in the third quarter.

Exciting in attack but suspect at the back, Charleville allowed their Galway opponents to stay in contention for a long spell, but Clifford’s opportunist strike, after he connected with a rebound off the upright in the 47th minute, put the issue beyond doubt.
