Ballymun end final dream of St Michael’s

Ballymun Kickhams (Dublin) 3-5 St Michael’s (Cork) 1-2

BALLYMUN KICKHAMS’ goalscoring ability proved crucial in beating St Michael’s in yesterday’s Féile na nÓg Division 1 boys semi-final at Nemo Rangers.

The Dublin champions dominated the first half, but only had a 0-2 to 0-0 lead at half-time, the crossbar denying Conor Kavanagh a goal while St Michael’s goalkeeper Ger O’Connell produced a brilliant save to deny Anton Swann. Ryan Swift and a Swann free both raised white flags for Ballymun in the opening period.
