Joy for Our Lady’s as last gasp McGrath point foils Carrig

Our Lady’s needed a draw to qualify for the knock-out stages while Carrigaline had to win, and they looked to be on track when leading by a point going into injury time.

There appeared to be no danger when Shane Burke’s effort for an equaliser was going harmlessly wide. However, the Carrigaline ‘keeper decided to play the sliothar only to lose possession and his full back eventually took the ball over his end line for a 65. It all hinged on the outcome of the 65, and outstanding centre-back Noel McGrath showed marvellous composure to strike the ball over the bar and set up a quarter-final clash with Midleton CBS next Wednesday.
