Bennett goal seals victory for Lismore

IN appalling conditions Lismore advanced past hapless Fourmilewater in this Waterford SHC quarter-final replay in Dungarvan on Saturday.

The weather, which could have forced the abandonment of the tie, was to play a crucial role in deciding the outcome.

With the sides level in the 50th minute, a speculative delivery from Sean Flynn seemed like an easy collection for goalkeeper Tom Flynn. However he lost control of the sodden ball and Eoin Bennett pounced to crash the ball to the net.
