Gritty Glenstal punish Crescent

Glenstal Abbey 6 Crescent Comprehensive 5

Hot favourites Crescent Comprehensive were, naturally, gutted after Glenstal flyhalf Michael O’Flynn’s brilliantly struck long-range penalty booted them out of the competition leaving Glenstalto celebrating as if they had won the trophy.

While the one-point victory merely guided them into the last four, Glenstal’s celebrations weren’t to be dampened. So far, it is achievement enough to make the semi-finals for the first time in a decade after a few heartbreaking years.
