Munster Junior Cup Round 4 – Killarney Celtic 7 Ballingarry 2 (Clancy 2)

Ballingarry were well and truly beaten by a superior team to end their Munster Junior cup run in Killarney. It was respectable at the break with just two goals between the sides indeed Ballingarry had a good chance to score when Clancy could have got on the end of a Denis Kelly cross while Fitzgerald had the ball in the net only to see it ruled out for an infringement.

The second half was a different matter as the high tempo game played on the Astro by the hosts finally got the better of Ballingarry. Dean Clancy reduced the deficit twice first when he rounded the keeper to roll the ball home and then from the spot. But there was to be no reprieve as Celtic ran out easy winners.
Team: Kenrick, Ahern, Browne, Fitzgerald, Kiely, Ryan, Kelly, Clancy, J O’Connor, S O’Connor, Quaid.
Used subs: Forde, Hayes, Gallagher, Smith, Healy.
