De La Salle College snatch late win in Harty Cup opener

De La Salle College snatch late win in Harty Cup opener

Injury time points from Tom Gallagher and Mikey Cummins gave De La Salle College a 2-11 to 1-12 win over St Flannans in the opening round of the Harty Cup at Boherlahan this afternoon.

Two Gavin Corbett goals left them 2-4 to 0-7 in front at half time. A freak goal by Darren O'Brien four minutes into the second period helped Flannans into a two point advantage. The sides were level on five occasions before Gallagher landed a long range free on 62 minutes. Substitute Mikey Cummins wrapped up a valuable win for the Waterford school.

Manager Dermot Dooley admitted that they won ugly but was delighted to pick up the two points.
