Sheehan blast crucial as Ballinora reel in Michael’s

BALLINORA came from six points down after 35 minutes to win by five in a cracking Evening Echo Premier IFC third round tie at Páirc Uí Rinn yesterday.

It was a result that didn’t look likely as Michael’s, superbly led by Eoin Buckley and Blackrock senior hurlers John Browne and Wayne Sherlock, forged 0-10 to 0-4 in front after leading 0-8 to 0-4 at half time.

However, Ballinora refused to roll over and, inspired by a Cathal Sheehan goal, they put in a storming finish to book their place in the quarter-final against the winners of the Nemo Rangers/St Finbarr’s tie.
