Flannan’s outclass Youghal
Actually, it doesn’t. Add in the fact that Flannan’s also notched 19 wides and that the Youghal keeper, Pádraig O’Brien, was one of their outstanding performers and the gap could have been even greater.
After five minutes play, the score stood at 2-5 to 0-1 (the goals by Donagh Stack and Darragh Moloney), by half-time it was 2-14 to 0-4 (three of those four Youghal points by their outstanding forward Joe Budds). At the three-quarters it was 4-21 to 0-4 (John Condon and Eamonn Callinan with the majors), with Condon and substitute Francie Nealon piling on the goals in the last quarter.
