Flying finish earns UCC victory in cracking clash

SIGERSON Cup holders UCC finished with a flurry of points to turn a two-point deficit into a three-point victory in this high-quality game at Dr Cullen Park, Carlow, yesterday.

Maynooth struck for the game’s only goal on the stroke of half-time when full-forward Michael Newman volleyed a loose ball to the net to put his side for the first time (1-4 to 0-5).

However, UCC midfielder Jamie O’Sullivan kicked his side level from a 55m free and a 45.
