Kilcummin Rathmore stun South Kerry to book final date

Favourites South Kerry were shocked in Saturday’s Kerry U21 football championship semi-final by the impressive Kilcummin/Rathmore amalgamation (1-10 to 0-12).

The game’s decisive goal came in the 10th minute when Kerry minor midfielder Kieran Murphy, who started at full forward, soared high above Mark Griffin to fetch a Brendan O’Keeffe cross and rifled to the net.

The winners, thanks to two points from Marc Reen, dominated the opening half, and led 1-6 to 0-3 at the interval.
