Kelly’s late free snatches it for Newcestown

NEWCESTOWN had star player and dead ball specialist Eoin Kelly to thank for their one point victory over Ballincollig in last night’s PIHC fourth round meeting at Cloughduv.

The corner forward showed a cool head under tremendous pressure to slot his side’s last minute free between the posts from out on the right touchline.

The point, Kelly’s ninth and eight from the dead ball was a crushing blow for Ballincollig who lead for entire first-half and spurned several late chances with wayward shooting.
