Huge comeback for Monaghan
Monaghan 1-16 St Raymond’s 3-06
Monaghan fell behind by ten points and then stormed all the way back to get the win. They allowed St Raymond’s to jump into a 2-05 to 0-01 lead in the first t 20 minutes as they never got into the running in that time period. The Rays goals came from Shea Furlong and Michael Cody. When Monaghan did get going they had the last five points of the first stanza. Brian O’Connor was introduced and he had a huge impact on the game. Shane McKenna was also active up front as they gave the inside forwards chances. They were back within 5 and gaining momentum. They opened the second half with a further two points to open the second half Donie Broderick had a goal to again give St Raymond’s a six point lead but that was immediately cancelled out by a Paul McGlynn goal when Gary Murphy set him free.
