Senior Football Tadgh Crowley Cup Semi Final Senior footballers fail to take their chances against Bishopstown in the Tadgh Crowley Cup semi-final. A home fixture in Brinny on Sunday morning, the Rovers just came up short with Fiachra Lynch and John Cottrell kicking 4 points each to Bishopstowns 1-8. The city side opened the scoring on 4 minutes, both sides trading points (Fiachra 2 and John 3) and going in level at half time 0-5 apiece. The visitors again opened the scoring with a point just after the break and goaled soon afterwards to put 1-1 between the sides 10 minutes into the second half. 2 points from Fiachra and one from John put the minimum between the sides on 50 minutes. Bishopstown went 2 points up before the home side was awarded a penalty after a foul on Fiachra in the 56 minute. The captain stepped up but his firmly struck shot was wide of the goalkeeper’s right hand post. Bishopstown added another point on the full-time whistle to leave the score 1-8 to 0-8. The Rovers had ample opportunities over the hour and if a little more clinical in scoring positions it could easily have been a different outcome. Donnacha O’Driscoll Michael O’Brien Tomas O’Brien Ben Murphy Darragh Crowley Jack Lyons Aidan Walsh Dave Lynch Gary Farrell Eoin Delaney Noel O’Donovan Darragh Looney John Cottrell 0-4 (1f) Fiachra Lynch 0-4 Richie Butler Subs: Jack Murphy for Richie Butler, Darragh Murphy for Michael O’Brien, Eoin Fallon for Eoin Delaney, Stephen Manning for Aidan Walsh, Tadgh O’Brien for Darragh Looney Jason Crowley for Ben Murphy.
