Dunnes Bar Division 2 League – Our D2 leagues winning streak came to an end on Saturday last when our opponents Allen Gales walked away with the 2 points. The game started well for the Annaduff lads with a point from Kenny Cox from the throw in followed swiftly with one from Sean McNabola and a point from a free by Sean Duignan. Allen Gaels seamed waste full with some scorable free opportunity’s in the first quarter. Alan Glancy slotted a point in the 11 min followed up with a goal from Gavin, to leave 1-4 to 0-1. But in true Allen gaels spirit they pointed from a fee and followed with a goal in the 20th min. In the 26 min Allen gaels converted another goal to go 2 points ahead. But in the dying mins of the first half a pull down on Eoin Gill left Alan Glancy with a one on one penalty with the Allen Gaels keeper which of course he converted to leave Annaduff 2-4 to Allen Gaels 2-3 at half time.
The Annaduff men got the perfect start after the break with a points from Colm Cox and David Duignan. But the Allen Gaels men got their 3rd goal in the 33rd min which gave them great confidence.
Sean Mc and Allan Gaels swapped points in the 46th and 47th min. Kenny Cox converted a point from a free to put the Annaduff men 1 ahead in the 50th min but this was soon cancelled out with a point from play followed by a well taken 45 from the Allen Gaels keeper to put them 1 ahead. Sean Mc in the 58th min pointed another to level the sides again. But a second Yellow for Keith Duignan weakening the Annaduff defence which Allen Gaels took full advantage to finish with 2 points from play. Full time score Annaduff 2-09 Allen Gaels 3-8.

They had a great start with Caelan Newton getting the first score of the match by burying the ball into the back of the net. This was followed by a points from Darren Cox and Senan Mooney. Dromahair then had a purple patch and scored two good points of their own. Senan and Darren got another point each before Dromahair got a goal. Luke Fitzsimons got two points in succession for Annaduff.  Liam was strong in Goal as usual. Kyle, Eoghan and Declan in the full back line and Patrick, Josh and Kevin in the half back line put up a put in a great display with great tackling. They also won almost all of their own kick outs during the match. Credit has to be given to the Dromahair defenders and particularly their keeper who made a number of goal line saves that prevented our forwards, Oisin, Nathan and Eamon from adding more goals in the first half. Senan did get a final point for Annaduff to leave it 1.08 to 1.03 at halftime. Ross O’Shea came on as a sub for his first under 13 match and put in a fine performances.
