Carbery march on as three red cards cost Clonakilty dear

Cork SFC quarter-final

Expectations will be running high again this season for Carbery Rangers supporters after disposing of a dogged 12-man Clonakilty in a packed Enniskeane last evening, securing a semi-final meeting with either Bishopstown or Clyda Rovers.

Seven days on from dethroning county champions Castlehaven in a replay, it was always going to be a big ask to come back down to earth in such a short time. And while this derby encounter never reached the same heights, the Rosscarbery side showed plenty of will-to-win and lots of self-belief.
