Playing with the wind in the opening half Toomevara raced into a 0-6 to 0-1 lead after nine minutes with Darragh Walsh (free) responding for the Blues in the third.<\/p>\n

A second Darragh Walsh free doubled the \u00c9ire \u00d3g tally in the tenth minute, but Toomevara added two more points and led 0-8 to 0-2 when John Cahalan notched the Blues\u2019 first point from play in the 18th.<\/p>\n

Seconds later Brian Darcy made a fine double save to deny the visitors a three-pointer. Toome soon added three points to their tally, however, before striking for the opening goal of the game in the 25th minute (0-3 to 1-11).<\/p>\n

John Cahalan responded with an \u00c9ire \u00d3g point, but Toomevara struck for a second and third goal in the 26th and 27th minutes. The Greyhounds then closed out the half with three more points from play and led 3-14 to 0-5 at the break.<\/p>\n

\u00c9ire \u00d3g started the second half in positive fashion with points from Se\u00e1nie Geaney, David Cleary, Darragh Walsh (free) and John Cahalan (two) cutting the deficit to thirteen by the 39th minute. Following a foul on Gavin O\u2019Connor in the 38th minute Darragh Walsh opted to go for goal from the 21-yard line, but the midfielder\u2019s shot was saved.<\/p>\n

Toomevara added three points to their tally (two frees) while the home side responded with points from Darragh Walsh (free) and Alan Kelly.<\/p>\n

In the 58th minute Niall Madden\u2019s long-range free broke to David Cleary who beat the Toome \u2018keeper with a left-handed pull. A minute later John Cahalan added a point from play, but Toomevara had the final say in the matter when firing home a fourth goal in second half injury time.<\/p>\n
