Urhan took control of Group A of the Bons Secours Cork PJFC as a result of their 1-11 to 1-7 win over Ballydesmond in Kilmichael on Sunday. Ballydesmond played with the wind in the opening half and a goal from the great Donncha O’Connor helped them into a 1-3 to 0-4 interval lead. Conchubhar Harrington was in fine form for Urhan though, as he kicked 0-7 and Alan Elphick struck for 1-1 to help the Beara men to a 1-11 to 1-7 win.

That leaves Urhan on three points while St Nick’s are locked with Ballydesmond on two points after they beat Cullen by 2-9 to 1-10 in Mallow. David Dunlea had their opening goal in the first half, Donagh Coughlan claimed another after the interval before a late Nathan Goulding point helped the city side to the win. They will play Urhan in the final round while Cullen will need a win when they take on Ballydesmond.
