Maher leads the way as Duagh breeze into decider

Duagh 2-07 St Senan’s 0-04

Duagh had a dream start when Nigel O’Connor’s attempt for a point fell short and ended in the net after three minutes. There was little to separate the sides thereafter as Sean Weir came to the fore in the St Senan’s defence. Indeed a Maher point was all that was between them (1-1 to 0-3) at the interval. The outcome was settled in the opening 10 minutes of the restart when Maher’s long delivery ended up with Stephen Moran off-loading to Martin Scannell for a goal.

A minute later, Scannell — who had returned from Dubai for the game, turned villain when he saw his penalty attempt saved by keeper Tomas Stack.
