Firies win EK Division 2 League
EAST KERRY SENIOR LEAGUE DIVISION 2 FINAL
Firies 2-14 Templenoe 1-8
FIRIES took the title in the division 2 Final of the Frank Doran Safeguard Security East Kerry Senior League, after a fast paced game in Glenflesk against Templenoe on Friday night. Templenoe played with determination to the final whistle but were unlucky on front of goal and saw point scoring opportunities carried wide by the wind. Firies were more economical with the ball, dominated the middle area of the field for periods and Jack Sherwood strengthened their defence dropping

Firies got off to a dream start with a goal in the first minutes of the game. Jack Sherwood travelled through the middle and passed off to Conal Murphy, who gave the goal keeper no chance and buried the ball to the net. The sides swapped points. Templenoe were dominating the middle area of the field and were denied a goal by Firies goalie Billy O’Rourke. However, Shane Cronin won the ball passed to Danny Cahalane who found captain Brian Corwley and the sides were level 1-1 apiece in the eighth minute.
A scatter of points had the minimum between the sides and Templenoe were pressing on goal, when an injury to Killian Spillane in the 12th minute, forced a substitution. Templenoe win over Fossa, and Currow were 7-13 to 4-8 winners over Kilcummin.
