Lynch and Ó Cróinín inspire Naomh Abán

Naomh Aban (Cork) 1-6 Gweedore (Donegal) 0-8

It was an extremely hard earned victory given that the Cork side were involved in two periods of extra-time in their quarter-final tie with An Gaeltacht (Kerry) and a bruising semi-final against the host club the previous day which they won by a point.

Naomh Aban's victory is all the more meritorious given that they didn't play Lynch and Ó Cróinín in their earlier games due to Cork's Munster semi-final against Clare next Sunday, and lost the services of Jonathan McCarthy (injury) and Jack Lynch (straight red card).
