Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g travelled to Roscrea to take on the hosts in our opening game of the north Tipperary junior A league and despite a battling performance left empty-handed as the hosts emerged victorious thanks to Jim McDonnell\u2019s late goal.

The Blues started brightly with a David Hackett pointed free following a foul on Christopher Ryan in the second minute. However playing with a strong wind Roscrea led 0-6 to 0-4 by the mid-way point with Nenagh’s other scores coming from the hurley\u2019s of David Cleary and two John Cahalan efforts. <\/p>\n

It was looking good for Nenagh up to this stage, however, the home side took control of the match for the remainder of the half with nine points of their own – their scoring spree only interrupted by a point from the impressive John Cahalan after he intercepted a short puck-out to leave proceedings 0-11 to 0-5 at the break.<\/p>\n

Nenagh started the second half brightly with three well-taken frees from David Hackett and another effort from John Cahalan inside the first ten minutes with Roscrea’s only reply an excellent free from Mark Ryan. <\/p>\n

In fact the second half almost became a free-taking contest between Hackett and Ryan as both players gave an exhibition with Hackett converting five to Ryan’s six.<\/p>\n

\u00c9ire \u00d3g worked very hard in the second half and by the 24th minute a superb seventy-yard effort from Gavin O\u2019Connor levelled the teams for the first time in the second half and it looked as if we were in for a grandstand finish until Jim McDonnell used all his experience to collect a high ball and despite intense pressure from full-back Michael Collins he managed to shoot past the advancing Kevin Flynn for the decisive score. <\/p>\n

Nenagh, to their credit, battled right to the end to get a three-pointer of their own, but the Roscrea backs soaked up all the pressure and earned a deserved victory.<\/p>\n
