Passage dream comes true

Ballygunner 3-13 Passage 3-16

The Gunners were seven points up with seven minutes left, but were reeled in by four late points which seemed likely to add respectability to the scoreline, and little more, and by two cracking goals: Passage were three points behind on 59 minutes when teenage sub Sean Hogan smashed home a superb equalising goal from an acute angle.

Almost on the resumption, the men in red and white stormed forward again, and Hogan touched the ball to joint-captain Conor Carey, who blasted home the winner sparking jubilation among a crowd of around 5,000.
