Clinical Carbery fires Éire Óg to semi-final

ÉIRE ÓG came from four points down in the second half to send Palatine tumbling out of the Carlow SFC in Saturday’s quarter-final at Dr Cullen Park — the former Leinster champions winning by 3-11 to 2-8.

Clinical Carbery fires Éire Óg to semi-final

Right corner-forward Bryan Carbery was in lethal form, scoring 2-5 as Éire Óg qualified for a semi-final meeting with holders Old Leighlin. Palatine led 1-4 to 0-6 at half-time, their goal coming in the 18th minute from Ciarán Moran.

The Kildare border side led 1-7 to 0-7 entering the final quarter but an Éire Óg penalty was coolly chipped to the Palatine net by Carbery to level. In the following minutes Éire Óg blitzed their opponents with 2-3 without reply, goals coming from the busy Cormac Mullins and Carbery, as the five-time Leinster champions closed out the game.
