Hegarty ensures Skibb get over line

O’Donovan Rossa 1-14 Clonakilty 2-9 (AET)

But it did little to distract two combative teams from making it a West Cork derby to savour. In truth though, had O’Donovan Rossa taken even half their chances, this opening round contest would never have seen extra-time.

Indeed Martin O’Brien’s last-gasp equaliser must have been a real kick in the teeth to Donal McCarthy and his selectors.
