Late Foley goal gives Aghabullogue the honours

There appeared to be no danger as the Rovers held a two-point advantage and were hurling confidently all over. But then Niall Buckley took a quick free in his own half, the ball was played across the face of the Courceys square to Foley who first timed the sliothar to the back of the net to give his side a dramatic victory.

Foley was Aghabullogue’s hero and deservedly so. He took over the freetaking duties after Denis O’Leary missed a couple, and he hit five points from placed balls which kept his side in the game at a stage when the Rovers were clearly the more dominant side and looking likely winners.
