Naomh Conaill ease past Glenfin and into Senior B final

Naomh Conaill cruised into the Senior B Football Championship final thanks to a big win over Glenfin.

Naomh Conaill 3-16
Glenfin 1-5

Marc Burke’s 12th minute goal laid the platform for a comfortable win for Martin Gallagher’s men.

Two goals in a deadly 90 seconds 11 minutes from the end put this one well beyond Glenfin’s reach.

The lively Burke did well and his ball across the goal face was steered in by Shane McDevitt. Almost immediately, Seamus Corcoran flicked home a third Naomh Conaill goal.

Off the back of a 5-17 to 0-5 quarter-final win over Cloughaneely, Naomh Conaill began in fine fashion again.
