Intermediate Semi Final
Burke the Donegal Star

Donegal 3-12 Monaghan 0-13

Monaghan were not able to combat the brilliant play of the two pronged attacking monster of Justin Burke and James Moynagh who combined to score 3-09 in a brilliant performance. Burke punished from frees while Moynagh was lethal from play. The goals came one in the first half and two in the second all finished clinically. Monaghan had the lead to open the game but a 7 points to 2 run put Donegal in the driving seat. When Moynagh had the first goal after 22 minutes the writing was on the wall. They were ahead 1-09 to 0-07 at the break and withstood a second yellow card for CJ Molloy ten minutes into the second half. They followed this with a brace of goals, the first when Burke finished a long ball pass by driving to the net, the second a Moynagh gem. When Brian Cuilinane saved a Dave Harvey penalty when Dessie Mallon was fouled the victory was secure.

Intermediate Semi Final

Horan leads in One Direction

Rangers 2-16 Kerry 0-06

While Naill Horan is the One Direction star, Shane led his side in the direction of the county intermediate final with a brilliant display on the forty for Rangers on Sunday. While Kerry had the first point of the game, Rangers replied with 2-01 in five minutes with Horan grapping the second. Kerry did have three of the next four scores but Rangers finished the first half strong with a further three points.

hey followed another O’Leary point to open the second half with ten consecutive points. Horan started and finished that burst while seven other players also got on the score sheet to show the diversified talents of Denis Twomeys side. Kerry was missing a number of players from the regular season and were always chasing the game against a side that will have no fears in the county final next week against Donegal.
