Clonmel snatch draw in late drama at Golden

Castletroy College 0-09 Clonmel High School 0-09

Guiry’s point handed Clonmel their second successive draw in their debut season in the Harty Cup, following an opening round stalemate against St Colman’s. But there was a degree of late controversy as Castletroy claimed John Stack should have been awarded a point in the 59th minute. And some observers believed Guiry’s effort, from the final play, went under and not over the bar as back-pedalling Casletroy goalkeeper Cian O’Dwyer struggled with the flight of the high ball.

However, a draw was the fairest result although Castletroy did finish the match with 11 wides, including seven in the first half.
