Jack Kelleher 0-2 and John Murray put Patrickswell ahead again by 0-19 to 0-18, but Na Piarsaigh surged ahead and clinched the win after a devastating spell of nine unanswered points in ten minutes. The score in the 52nd minute was a deficit of 0-27 to 0-19. Unfortunately Patrickswell were scoreless for twenty minutes until Jack Kelleher’s late consolation point. Na Piarsaigh emerged as 0-28 to 0-20 victors. Hard luck to the players and management.

The rate of scoring dropped off. By the 20th minute, Eoin Harmon and Liam Fitzgerald points kept the score at 1-4 to 0-5. The game was decided by a powerful purple patch from Patrickswell. Shane Hannon and Eoin Harmon scored goals and more points were added by Calvin Carroll, James Carrig and Eoin Harmon 0-3. By half-time, Patrickswell were thirteen points clear at 3-9 to 0-5 ahead.

The second half was less dramatic. Kieran Long and Calvin Carroll added two points apiece and Eoin Harmon made the scoreline 3-14 to 0-7 by the 45th minute. Patrickswell ended the match as 4-16 to 1-8 winners thanks to Eoin Harmon’s goal & point and Calvin Carroll’s point.

With no sense of panic, Patrickswell chipped away at the gap. Calvin Carroll and Patrick Kirby struck points to move the ‘Well within a single point. On the stroke of full-time, Mark Carmody popped up to equalise. The match finished in a 0-23 to 2-17 stalemate.

In the 50th minute, the scoreline was level at 0-9 apiece. The next ten minutes were neck and neck. Nigel Foley and Sam McNamara ensured parity at 0-11 each by the final minute.

Na Piarsaigh also controlled the latter stages of the first half to establish a 0-13 to 1-3 lead.

The wind eased off in the second half and diminished Patrickswell’s opportunity. Three points from Patrick Kirby and another from John Kirby reduced the deficit to 0-15 to 1-7 on 40 minutes.
