Sunday’s Well dig out win to dent Highfield hopes

Sunday’s Well 13 Highfield 6: This Ulster Bank League Division 2B local derby at Musgrave Park last night provided plenty of excitement for a crowd of more than 2,000 as Sunday’s Well all but ended Highfield’s ambitions of being crowned champions.

The ‘Well showed spirit and guts on top of opportunism to earn a victory that was surprising based on where the game was played, but rugby is often about taking chances and the winners certainly did that.

The outcome means both these Cork clubs, Sunday’s Well with the win and Highfield with a losing bonus point, joined leaders City of Derry on 56 points but the Ulster club remain top on points differential and have a game in hand today.
