Credit Union County Senior Football League, Round 8 Match Report, Templenoe V Glenflesk

County Senior Football League, Division 2, Round 8.

Templenoe 0-16, Glenflesk 1-17.

Templenoe hosted Glenflesk in round 8 of the county league last Sunday in glorious sunshine. After a high scoring encounter, Glenflesk emerged victorious with four points to spare. The turning point came 13 minutes in, when Dara Roche converted a penalty after Templenoe had opened up a three points advantage and the hosts never regained the lead thereafter.

There was large crowd in attendance to witness this game, with the league now starting to enter the business end of the season. The hosts started well outscoring Glenflesk by 0-5 to 0-02 in the opening 12 minutes with Stephen O’Sullivan, Colin Crowley (2), Sean Sheehan and Patrick Clifford all contributing. Indeed, the latter was unlucky not to have goaled his effort with the ball scrapping the top of the crossbar. Glenflesk for their part had Dara Roche in fine form throughout, with the first of his scores coming two minutes in and Jeff O’Donoghue added a second score after 11 minutes of play. Then came the pivotal moment when Ian Roche was adjudged to have been fouled inside the box. His brother Dara stepped up and gave Templenoe keeper Mark Looney no chance with his finish, to tie the contest. A water break was granted by the referee to allow both sets of players time for a much-needed drink in the soaring heat.

When the teams re-emerged, Glenflesk full back Daniel O’Brien briefly joined the attack to put the visitors in front for the first time. Colin Crowley then traded scores with Ian Roche, before Darragh Roche showed his class to fire over two more points, either side of an Aidan Crowley white flag for the hosts with one of Roches’s scores coming from an acute angle.

Half Time Score: Templenoe 0-07, Glenflesk 1-06.

Templenoe were dealt a blow at half-time with centre forward Patrick Clifford deemed not fit enough to continue. Nonetheless, the hosts proved they were still up the fight with Gavin Crowley powering his way through the defence to get his name on the scoresheet at the restart. Darragh Roche responded in kind, before Colin Crowley put over a beautiful long-range attempt in the 32^nd minute. The following seven minutes saw the East Kerry side enjoy a purple patch with Darragh Roche (3) and Sean Doherty pointing in quick succession, with Templenoe’s only reply in between coming from a Stephen O’Sullivan point from play. This put daylight between the sides with the score now 0-10 to 1-11. From here on the visitors pretty much kept Templenoe at arm’s length. Aidan Crowley and Gavin Crowley exchanged points with John Kelliher and Jeff O’Donoghue to leave score 0-12 to 1-13 going into the second half water break.

Templenoe’s cause wasn’t helped when they lost key players Mark Casey and Gavin Crowley to injury in the final quarter, but to their credit they kept plugging away. In fact, the hosts matched Glenflesk for scores (0-04 apiece) in the home stretch, but despite their best efforts Templenoe just could not manufacture a goal to pull this game back from the brink. Stephen O’Sullivan (3) and Aidan Crowley had scores to keep the encounter alive until the end for the hosts, but Glenflesk had points courtesy of brothers Darragh (2) and Dylan Roche (2) to make sure the visitors weren’t going to be caught.

Final Score: Templenoe 0-16, Glenflesk 1-17.

Scorers:

Billy Clifford RIP

All at Templenoe GAA Club were greatly saddened to learn of the passing of Billy Clifford, Raycoslough on Thursday, 25th May 2023.

Billy was a lifelong member and supporter of Templenoe GAA Club and followed the teams through thick and thin. He was a valued part of the Templenoe GAA field committee and generously volunteered his time to help prepare the pitch and direct match day traffic. Indeed, as recently as last Sunday’s county senior league game against Currow, Billy could be seen gathering up the sideline flags after the final whistle.

Templenoe GAA Club extends our deepest condolences to all the Clifford family.
