DLS salvage late draw

Teenager Jamie Barron’s early goal gave Fourmile a flying start and though De La Salle’s Eoin Madigan goaled on the quarter hour to edge them into the lead the challengers were more than good value for their 1-8 to 1-5 half-time lead.

With Barron and county star Shane Walsh providing major threats they matched De La Salle in a nail-biting second half. Still two points to the good in the closing minutes a major upset was on the cards, until the champions salvaged a priceless draw with a brace of late Brian Phelan pointed frees.
