Write a commentA busy spell for Corrinshego with their Festival in July proving a major hit.

Under 16 Football
Cor Fhuinseoige 1-08 Middletown 2-09
Corrinshego Under 16’s suffered their first defeat of the season at the semi-final stage of the championship last Thursday night at Granemore against Middletown. A very depleted side took the field due to Holidays, Hurling and Gaeltacht commitments forcing us to play 11 a side which eventually took its toll on the players on the big pitch. Middletown started with a free but we immediately responded with a 40 yard score from Conor Rice quickly followed by a Caolan Marron point also from play. Middletown quickly replied with a well worked goal but from then on in we completely dominated the game. Conor Loye at midfield was in unstoppable form with superb high fielding putting great ball into our forward line. The same player finished a move to the net to put us clear and further points from Brian Hobden and Conor Rice had us 1-06 to 1-01 ahead with 2 minutes left in the half. But again a soft free reduced the deficit and then a killer blow of a goal left the minimum between the sides 1-06 to 2-02.
On the re-start Middletown got a point to bring it level, Declan Loye had us ahead again with a score from play. It was end to end stuff but yet again Middletown seemed to get the breaks to bring it level from a free and go ahead with a point. Conor Rice brought us level again from a free from about 45 yards, a massive kick that just scraped the top of the crossbar, a great morale booster but we couldn’t build on it as Middletown edged ahead with 2 points. We had to go for goal as time was closing in but one effort was blocked and the next, we were penalised for over-carrying the ball which Middletown counterattacked to put them 3 ahead and end the game as a contest. A very disappointed team in the end but we now need to re-group to focus on our league. Best to luck to Middletown in the final. Go n-éirí go geal libh.
