PLAYED at Fossa the home side made the early running with two points from play (Harry Kelly, Seán Dineen).

Glenflesk opened with a Cian Lynch point. There were a scatter of points from Harry Kelly (2) and Peadar Kelleher from Fossa, and two from Glenflesk’s Dylan Roche. Glenflesk hit a purple patch, Cathan Harrington pointed on 20th minutes.

Dylan Roche fired an unstoppable goal, after a strong run from Luke Crowley. Both added points. Glenflesk could have gone further ahead but for some good saves by Fossa Goalkeeper Dean Sheehan. A Darragh O’Connor goal saw the score at half-time Glenflesk 2-6 Fossa 0-5.

Fossa regrouped at half-time and goaled from the restart when a long ball from Rocco Sheehan travelled to the Glenflesk net. Dylan Roche kicked four points in succession off left and right.

Glenflesk goalkeeper Jack O’Donoghue made a fine save before Ryan O’Leary added a Fossa point. Harry Kelly (Fossa) traded two points with Dylan Roche. Fossa, to their credit, never gave up.

Seán Dineen pointed before a fine shot was stopped by a post. This could have cut the lead to three points. However, it was Glenflesk’s night and they rounded off the scoring with a Cathan Harrington goal, capping a fine all round team performance. Seán O’Keeffe (East Region Coiste na nÓg) presented the shield to Glenflesk captain John Kelleher.
