Under 14A's Through To Feile Final

Posted on

At the end of a very tight 2011 Dublin Feile na nGael semi final, at a windswept Silverpark, the Kilmacud Crokes under 14A's squeezed past a game Cuala on a 1-7 to 1-6 margin.

An early Crokes goal against the breeze seemed to pressage well.  Within  minutes any preconceptions on the home side were well and truly knocked back as Cuala goaled and pointed.  With a few minutes left in the half the visitors were moving better and led 1-5 to 1-2.  Crokes pulled one back and were relieved to go in just two in arrears.  

A monster free from Dara Butler shortly into the second period brought it to the minimum.  Cuala dug in.  From there on it was blow for blow with scores at a premium.  With a few minutes on the clock the sides were 1-6 apiece and it took a late Stephen O'Dwyer free to edge the Kilmacud lads home.

The final against Na Fianna is scheduled for 3pm in Parnell Park.

C Keane, C McNicholas, M O’Rourke, C Kelly, R Hayes, D Butler, E Sheehy, T Fox, F O’Connor (0-1), A Tuck, S O’Dwyer (0-3), C O’Cleirigh, F Whitely, A Considine (1-0), C O’Dwyer (0-1).  Subs: C Pearson for A Tuck, C Fleming, J Maher, F Tucker, C Kealy, K Lannigan and J Gibbons
