Horgan and Cronin shine in Glen win

Glen Rovers 0-16 Ballinhassig 0-12

It featured an impressive return of 11 points from two of last year’s minors, Patrick Horgan and Eoghan Cronin, and ultimately their contribution was decisive.

Critical to the Glen success was a solid first-half display in which Horgan made the most significant contribution, both scoring and in general play. Ballinhassig claimed the first point in the fifth minute, with a long-range free from goalkeeper Martin Coleman, but they were to struggle for scores for a while after that.
