Corduff Game
We were unlucky to succumb to a late Corduff rally and ended up been beaten by a point last week. Paul Mc Keown opened the scoring in the 2nd minute with a well taken point from play. Corduff responded in kind two minutes later and again in the sixth minute. Paul Mc Keown added to our tally in the 7th minute before Stephen Mc Guirk our ever reliable free taker to make his mark four minutes later. Then disaster struck, a slip up in our defence allowed Corduff to take advantage and score a goal which gave them a two point cushion. The Rockcorry response was quick when a long ball over the Gaels defence by Keith Daly was latched on to by Dwayne Rooney to score a goal for Rockcorry. Mark Daly added a point with a free in the 20th minute and this concluded our first half scoring. However, Corduff added another four points to their tally thereafter to leave the half time score reading Rockcorry 1 – 4, Corduff 1 – 6.
The second half saw a slight improvement from our lads. Mark Daly scored three points and Paul Mc Keown scored one in the first 13 minutes of the second half with Corduff responding with one of their own. Stephen Mc Guirk , Paul Mc Keown and point in the 23rd minute by Mark Daly completed our tally. However, it was two late points after the Mark Daly strike by the Gaels which were to prove decisive leaving the Corduff team leaving with a one point victory. Final Score Rockcorry 1 – 11 , Corduff 1 – 12.
Team and scorers – Anthony Tate, Ciaran O’Hart, Rory Carroll, Colin Quinn, Pauric Reilly, Owen Fitzpatrick, Stephen Mc Guirk (0-2), Keith Daly, Mark Daly(0 -5), Niall Mc Keown, Seamus Carroll, Johnny Reilly, Mickey Conlon, Paul Mc Keown (0-4) and Dwayne Rooney (1-0).
