Story of the game:
Half-time: 1-5 to 1-6, Clonmore recover from a six point deficit to close the gap to one before HT - all first half scores coming from Dylan Doyle.
42mins: 1-11 to 1-6, 6 unanswered points from Dylan (2,1f), Billy, Sean Moran, Rory and Oisin,
55mins: 1-14 to 1-8, three more points by Billy and Dylan (2,1f),
57mins: 1-14 to 2-10, Eire Og hit back with 1-2 to narrow margin to one point, the goal a penalty and Clonmore are reduced to 14 men. It's nail biting stuff as Clonmore have to defend with all their might and one timely interception by Ciaran Mooney saves a certain goal.
Full-time: 1-15 to 2-10: Billy Lawlor has the final say with the last point of the game in the 59th minute.
Clonmore: Melvyn Kinch, Darragh McKernan, Anthony Kealy-McDonald, James Whelan, Ciaran Mooney, Cormac Connolly, Cathal Foley, Rory Maguire (0-1), Luke Connolly, Jake Hickey, Billy Lawlor (0-3), Eoin Connolly, Oisín Doyle (0-1), Dylan Doyle (1-9), Sean Moran (0-1). Sub: Adam Smith.
