Clancy points end Annascaul dream

THANKS mainly to the match-winning heroics of centre-back Paul Clancy, Moycullen fashioned a one- point triumph over Annascaul in yesterday’s All-Ireland IFC semi-final clash at the Limerick Gaelic Grounds.

With his side reduced to 14 men following the dismissal of midfielder Gareth Bradshaw for a second yellow card offence in the 53rd minute, the inspirational Clancy came to Moycullen’s rescue with two points in the last five minutes to secure victory.

It was fairytale stuff for Moycullen but a heart-breaking experience for Annascaul, who missed the opportunity of a lifetime to level matters two minutes into injury time.
