Drom & Inch make use of chances

COMING into this, the first of the two Tipperary senior hurling county semi-finals in Semple Stadium yesterday, Killenaule were the only unbeaten team left in the Tipperary championship, the only divisional champions still standing (they had won the South).

This morning they’ll surely be kicking themselves: ten wides they hit in a first-half in which they looked clearly the better side, while Drom & Inch ended the game with a total of one, just one, a missed 65 by captain Seamus Butler in the 14th minute

Killenaule created four gilt-edged goal chances in the second half, three of which they squandered, corner-forwards Tony Doyle and Niall O’Dwyer each hitting a soft shot from close range straight at Drom & Inch keeper Damien Young, with O’Dwyer also booting another just wide.
