Duhallow show true grit under pressure

WHEN the going got tough at windy Coachford yesterday, Duhallow answered any questions of their desire and commitment to go a long way in the Evening Echo Cork Co SFC.

Playing into the teeth of a strong wind in the second-half, and hit by two quick Douglas points which left just one between the sides, dashing Duhallow stood up and were counted.

Playing majestic football and inspired by classy centre-back Denys O’Brien, they were both ruthless and committed as they left Douglas for dead to set up a quarter-final meeting with either St Nicholas or Carrigdhoun.
