The first score came from Cornelius Buckley from a free in the second minute. A minute later Sean O’Keeffe scored another free for Gneeveguilla.

Conor Quirke responded for the home side from a tight angle followed by two Daniel Daly frees. Both sides kicked the ball wide some more before the half time whistle which had a scoreline of 1-5 to 5 points in favour of the hosts.

Daniel Daly got the second half scoring underway with a free. Soon after Alex Coffey gave a great pass to Aidan Walsh who found the back of the net. Gneeveguilla’s first score of the second half came from a Cornelius Buckley free in the seventh minute, which he repeated a minute later.

Rathmore 0-21 Ballymacelligott 1-9
Rathmore scored twenty points from play with one mark also. In the twenty third minute of the first half veteran goalkeeper Kenneth O’Keeffe expertly saved a penalty from Ballymacelligott kicker Vinny Horan. Rathmore were 11 to 3 points ahead and a goal at this stage. Cathal Ryan and James Darmody scored most of the points for Rathmore, collecting eight of the thirteen points at half time. Brendan O’Keeffe and Mark Ryan were dominant at mid field where O’Keeffe was dominant on the opposition kick out. Dan Murphy was dominant at centre back while Andrew Moyinhan effected a goal line clearance after ten minutes. Rathmore moved the ball quickly to the forward line where Chrissy Spiers picked off three scores in the first half, while Mark Ryan twice, Darragh Rahilly, Brian Friel also scored in the first half. Ballymacelligott didn’t score until the twelfth minute when Darragh O’Regan scored.

Credit to Ballymacelligott who got a point and a goal from Darragh O’Regan by the fourth minute even though Cian Counihan was off on a black card. Alan Dineen followed on another black after thirteen minutes. Rathmore continued to score eight points in the second half with Ryan and Spiers to the fore. Ballymacelligott to their credit never gave up and scored four points in the second half.

Templenoe 1-11 Beaufort 1-9
Ironically, it was the hosts first win on home soil in this year’s county league. Templenoe had to do it the hard way though, trailing by five with eleven minutes of normal time remaining, but credit to the players they kept battling, and came good when it mattered most to defy the odds.

Beaufort started the brighter with Sean O’Brien and Liam Carey putting them two points to the good inside the opening five minutes. Beaufort dominated the exchanges in the first quarter but failed to make it count on the scoreboard, hitting at least five wides in this spell. At the other end, Templenoe had chances too, but their efforts were either dropping short or going wide. Liam Care,y with a point from play and a point from a mark, extended the visitors lead to four points, before Templenoe finally raised their first white flag of the evening through Sean Sheehan twenty minutes in. Further points immediately followed with Stephen O’Sullivan and Aidan Crowley both landing frees to make it 0-03 to 0-04 after twenty-three minutes. Beaufort upped the ante again to pull three points clear courtesy of Kieran Dennehy and Ronan Murphy, but Templenoe were keeping with them and responded with Aidan Crowley slotting over his second free. Half Time Score: Templenoe 0-04 Beaufort 0-06.

Shortly after the restart, Colin Crowley brought Templenoe back to within a point of the visitors, kicking a lovely long range score. The game then entered another period of stalemate, but this time it was mostly Templenoe that were guilty of squandering chances up front. Beaufort’s Fergal Hallissey made no such mistakes with two converted frees in the 41st and 44th minutes. Stephen O’Sullivan eventually ended Templenoe scoring drought with a free to reduce the margin back to two points mid-way through the second half. Soon after, the match took a dramatic turn when Beaufort were awarded a penalty after Sean O’Brien was adjudged to have been fouled. Centre forward Danny Healy dispatched the spot kick with aplomb to make it 0-6 to 1-08. The hosts' reply was imminent with Sean Sheehan using his experience well to calmly pop over a point and keep the home side in contention. Stephen O’Sullivan added another free, but then Beaufort substitute Jonathan Kissane looked to have sealed Templenoe's fate with point to make it 0-08 to 1-09 with only five minutes of normal time left to play. Then came the fight back, with Kieran McCarthy getting forward to split the posts before a great team move started by Stephen O’Sullivan ended with a fist pass across the square, with Josh Crowley Holland rising highest to palm the ball to the net. Suddenly the score was 1-09 apiece. Templenoe sensed blood and less than a minute later Brian Crowley put the hosts in front for the first time after 57 minutes of play. Beaufort came close to equalizing, but it just wasn’t their night. Aidan Crowley secured the win with the last kick of the game from a placed ball.
