Three Andrew Coffey points and another from John Cahalan helped \u00c9ire \u00d3g into a 0-4 to 0-3 lead inside the opening eight minutes.<\/p>\n

Toomevara took a significant lead when a long-range free was deflected to the net. The Greyhounds then converted two frees before a Toomevara point from play helped the home side into a 1-6 to 0-4 lead.<\/p>\n

\u00c9ire \u00d3g steadied themselves and fought back thanks to a fine goal from Niall O\u2019Gorman in the 19th minute following good work from Keelan Higgiston and Philip Hickey. The Blues found themselves level on 1-6 apiece in the 22nd minute following two Anthony Walsh frees.<\/p>\n

Toomevara edged back into the lead, but \u00c9ire \u00d3g struck for their second goal in the 25th minute when Philip Hickey flicked Andrew Coffey\u2019s delivery into the net – 2-6 to 1-7.<\/p>\n

To their credit Toomevara out-scored \u00c9ire \u00d3g 0-3 to 0-1 during the remaining minutes of the opening half to leave the sides level at the break – \u00c9ire \u00d3g 2-7 Toomevara 1-10.<\/p>\n

Two minutes into the second half a Keelan Higgiston point handed \u00c9ire \u00d3g a precious lead, but Toome hit back with three points of their own to take a 1-13 to 2-8 lead by the 38th minute – the Blues also had \u2018keeper Adam Healy to thank for making a fine save to deny the Greyhounds a goal in the 35th minute.<\/p>\n

Three Anthony Walsh frees (with one effort in reply from Toome) saw the sides level (2-11 to 1-14) as this entertaining contest entered the final quarter.<\/p>\n

Toomevara seized the initiative with a fine point in the 47th minute, but \u00c9ire \u00d3g struck for their third goal in the 48th – on this occasion John Cahalane picked out Anthony Walsh with a searching delivery and Walsh set up Andrew Coffey for a fine goal (3-11 to 1-15).<\/p>\n

Toome responded with two quick points to level matters, but \u00c9ire \u00d3g finished the stronger with points from Anthony Walsh (two, one free) and Andrew Coffey (two) sealing a four-point win.<\/p>\n
