Youghal hold Tracton amid scoreline confusion

Youghal hold Tracton amid scoreline confusion

The uncertainty centred on a second-half Sean O’Sullivan effort for Tracton – most observers credited the Tracton player with a point to put his side three ahead but it is understood the ball went wide, and late in the game the scoreboard display at both ends was changed out of sequence to ‘deduct’ a point from Tracton.

Two late points from Youghal secured them a draw, and on balance that was a fair result. The east Cork side were quicker into their stride, playing with purpose and determination, with full-back John Grace leading by example.
