O’Connor point sparks remarkable Bishopstown turnaround

Bishopstown 2-7 Dohenys 1-7

Consider the state of play with 10 minutes remaining in this game. Dohenys’ organisation and workrate had helped them to boss the proceedings, and hold a commanding 1-7 to 0-2 lead. They had nullified the scoring threat posed by Bishopstown and Daniel O’Donovan’s 30th-minute point was the solitary score the city team had managed from open play.

Bishopstown’s severe struggles in front of goal looked certain to handicap their hopes of a comeback.
