Nemo win gripper as brave Clon pay penalty

A GAME to savour on a fabulous Newcestown sod on Saturday, champions Nemo Rangers drawing on all their reserves to edge past Clonakilty in an Evening Echo Cork Co SHC third round replay that buzzed throughout.

The huge crowd were treated to some delightful passages of football, but, in the end, a 41st minute penalty, won and converted by David Kearney, proved decisive in a Nemo victory that looked assured at half-time.

But Clon are no quitters and gave the city kingpins a right rattle in a second-half that was certainly a long one for the champions.
