Alan O’Reilly has a brilliant record from penalty kicks. His saves for Ireland in the New York soccer championship were followed by two more in this contest that make him the man of the match.

The loss through injury of Sean Flynn and Noel Kennedy, alongside the sending off of Fitzgerald was too much for Dublin to contend with. Dave Mooney is a tremendous footballer; Declan Reilly had moments while Phil Daly, Shane Carty and Shane Moore all had important scores.

Dublin: 1 Alan Reilly, 2 Niall Davey, 3 Barry McKieran, 4 Mick Furlong, 5 Kevin Fitzgerald, 6 Sean Flynn, 7 Dave Mooney (0-2), 8 Cathal Loughnane, 9 Noel Kennedy, 10 Ger Bannon, 11 Declan Reilly (1-1), 12 Shane Carty (0-1), 13 Shane Moore (0-2), 14 Ray McLoughlin, 15 Phil Daly (1-1).

Roscommon: 1 Liam Sheehan, 2 John Walsh, 3 Colin Nester, 4 Michael O’Neill, 5 Donnacha Dunne, 6 Michael O’Reilly (0-2), 7 Lonan Maguire, 8 Adrian Tate (1-1), 9 Michael Kenny, 10 Senan O’Grady, 11 Shane McKeever, 12 Jason O’Callaghan (0-1), 13 Liam O’Sullivan (1-2), 14 Shane Russell, 15 Michael Travors (0-3).

REBELS WIN AND MOVE ON

Cork 1-14

Kerry 1-3

The rematch of Kerry and Cork was their second game in four days between the rivals, and again it went easily to Cork.

Kerry knocked out the Rebels in last season’s semifinal, but there was no fear of that happening this season with Stephen Kavanagh, Damien Reilly, Alan O’Sullivan and Colin Mahoney all in Ireland. Cork had close to a full side out and followed the Thursday evening win with another comprehensive victory.
