Martin’s unlikely goal inspires Athlone IT past Trinity challenge

Athlone IT 3-10 Trinity College Dublin 0-10

Westmeath’s Kieran Martin swooped for the unlikeliest of goals as Athlone IT moved through to Round 1 of the Sigerson Cup. The experienced county man scored directly from a 45 metre free early in the second-half to effectively kill off Trinity’s challenge.

Roscommon’s Kieran Kilcline was the key forward overall with 1-4 for the midlands outfit, booking them a tough test against UCD next Tuesday.
