Tommy Callaghan, 23 Aug
Eadestown and Sarsfields played out an exciting draw in this evening's
opening game in the Joe Mallon Motors SFC.
Underdogs, Eadestown led at the break by a point, 1-6 to 1-5, the goals
coming from Pauric Tuohy (Eadestown) and Shea Ryan of Sarsfields.
The second half was nip and tuk with Eadestown leading by two with ten
to go.
They held on to that lead late on but Sarsfields, after a number of
wides, finally got the leveler through Ben Loakman free on 60 minutes.
Eadestown finished the game with 13 players, Ben Fitzsimons and Conan
Boran both shown two yellows.
Sarsfields will be relieved to get out with a the draw while Eadestown
can justifiably feel very upset with a number of decisions that did not
go their way.
Final score: Eadestown 1-9 Sarsfields 1-9.
