Brislane delivers in style as Toomevara capture 32nd title

TOOMEVARA narrowly overcame a determined Borris-Ileigh challenge to capture their 32nd North Tipperary SHC title in MacDonagh Park, Nenagh on Saturday evening.

In a lacklustre encounter the turning point came in the 49th minute when super sub, Eoin Brislane was sprung from the bench and within three minutes he had the ball in the Borris-Ileigh net.

The goal propelled Toome into the lead for the first time since the 22nd minute after a half which had seen Borris- Ileigh pull two clear on two occasions only to be pegged back by the scoring exploits of Ken Dunne and John O’Brien.
