An Riocht kicked
twenty wides and eleven points
on Monday in Castlewellan and
lost by two points.
Fridays game
with Warrenpoint was our first
senior league match at Dunavil
this season and there was a tremendous
start with three goals in the
opening ten minutes as we went
3:2 to 0:1 ahead.
Warrenpoint held
their nerve and aided by some
laboured defence on our part they
had the deficit cut to four points
by the break, 3:4 to 0:9, and
were level five minutes into the
second half.
Ciaran Walsh
and Aidan Cunningham, who were
our best players, combined for
a cracking fourth goal and when
the visitors were awarded a penalty
Gavin Finnegan went full length
to turn the spot kick away.
Walsh added acutely
angled frees, right and left,
as An Riocht finished strongly.
