Duhallow rally to stun Ballincollig

Duhallow came from nowhere to fashion an unexpected and exhilarating victory.

It was heartbreak for a Ballincollig side that performed magnificently after a hesitant start and who looked destined to triumph when opening up a seven-point lead in the 37th minute. Struggling alarmingly, Duhallow looked down and out. But, drawing on all their reserves they conclusively proved that a game is never won until the final whistle.
