Clinical Carrigdhoun back in business

Carrigdhoun 1-19 Duhallow 1-12

Returning to the championship for the first time since 2010, Carrigdhoun surged into a commanding 14 point advantage in the opening half. Though Duhallow battled tooth and nail to come within four points at the three-quarter stage, Carrigdhoun pulled clear again.

The look of satisfaction on manager Pat Desmond’s face told its own story afterwards.
