South Kerry League Group A Round 2:

Templenoe 1-6, Renard 2-4

A lacklustre performance from Templenoe saw them lose out by one point at home to Renard in a match played in wet and windy conditions.

Templenoe started quite well and got off the mark with a close range point from Martin Reilly in the 2nd minute. But Renard who had wind advantage in the first half replied with two scores of their own through Darragh Fitzgerald and Kevin Kelly. Teddy Doyle tied up the scores again after he converted a free, following a foul on John Rice. Then two quick points from the Spillane cousins Pat and Tom put the hosts 0-4 to 0-2 ahead at the end of the first quarter. Scores were hard to come by in the next 15 minutes, with the rain starting to cpme down heavy, but Darragh Fitzgerald did find the range for the visitors with a score from over 30 yards out. Then just on the stroke of half time, Mark Sugrue landed a 45 over the bar to leave matters all square at the interval.  

Half Time Score: Templenoe 0-4, Renard 0-4

The opening 12 minutes of the second half saw both sides, but Templenoe in particular guilty of coughing up possession and handling errors. The home side just failed to take advantage of the strong wind and hit a number of wides as well. However, in the 13th minute John Moriarty put Pat Spillane through for the game’s first goal, a rocket of shot giving Renard Keeper James O’Sullivan no chance. Renard’s response though was imminent with Kevin Curran combining with Sean O’Connor, who hit a low shot to the net to level the scores once again. Teddy Doyle briefly restored Templenoe’s lead to one point, but then the host’s were dealt a blow when they lost their top scorer Pat Spillane to a second yellow card. The game was now on a knife edge and with just a few minutes remaining, a high ball in from Brian Sugrue was fisted to the net by Liam Sugrue. Veteran Dan O’Connor almost had a goal for Templenoe, but his effort was well saved by the goalie. Then in injury time a long ball from John Rice was gathered by Teddy Doyle, but he fired his effort just over the crossbar.
