Canning on goal trail as powerful Portumna moving into gear
Joe Canning once again led the way with a haul of 2-6 – he got a goal in each half – as the champions secured their second win in Group D of the competition and end the stern Beagh challenge.
Elsewhere in Group D of the championship, Killimordaly pulled off the surprise of the weekend when they managed to defeat hot-favourites Kinvara by 1-9 to 0-11 in Athenry. A John McDonagh goal before the break was crucial as the victors secured their first win of the season, while 0-6 from Niall Earls also helped their cause.
