That Steven Sherlock would kick the winning score of the county final was “written in the stars”, according to St Finbarr's manager Paul O’Keeffe.

In irresistible form all season, Sherlock had put the Barrs 0-13 to 0-12 in front as the clock spilled past the hour mark and into time added on. But with Clon subsequently locating an equaliser, the 24-year-old had to step up to the mark for a second time when swinging over the game’s decisive point on 63 minutes.
