Shinrone 0 - Rearcross 'A' 3

Rearcross 'A' defeated Shinrone on a three nil scoreline in a league game played at the Offaly venue last Sunday. Rearcross signalled their intent as early as the seventh minute when a well stuck effort from Emmet Steed was just wide of the target. Rearcross took the lead in the 11th minute when good play from Brendan Deegan found PJ McLoughlin in space who slided the ball past the Shinrone net minder. Shinrone came in to the game as the half progressed with defender Darren Malone heading out for a corner to avert the danger on 24 minutes. Thomas Kennedy was unlucky not to get on the score sheet in the 39th minute when his effort from a twenty yard free kick rebounded of the crossbar. Rearcross did go two nil ahead in the 54th minute when Derek O'Toole got on the end of a Martin McLoughlin cross and headed home from close range. Brendan Deegan put the victory beyond doubt in the 83rd minute with a right-footed goal after fine play by Derek O'Toole on the left flank.
