McCarthy edges Bandon past brave Dripsey

BANDON withstood a late Dripsey comeback before eventually prevailing at Brinny on Saturday evening.

Significant stoppages during the game saw seven minutes of added time being played and a draw looked on the cards when Dripsey centre-forward Diarmuid O’Riordan stood over a ‘65 at the death.

O’Riordan’s effort tailed wide, however, and all things considered, Bandon deserved the victory.
