Kilmurry’s late charge denies Rockchapel

Kilmurry 0-07 Rockchapel 1-04

The Muskerry side, who led by 0-5 to 1-1 at half-time, were under pressure as they failed to add to that tally for 23 minutes of the second-half, penned back in their own half as Rockchapel rediscovered the sharpness which had yielded such a great start.

After Kilmurry corner-back Eoin Barrett was harshly deemed to have committed a sliding tackle in the 47th minute, Liam Collins converted the free to send Rockchapel two clear at 1-4 to 0-5 and, with the wind behind them, they seemed set to push on.
