Three consecutive points rescues their preliminary round tie.
Declan Bogue Reports from Healy Park Errigal Ciaran 0-12 St Eunan’s 0-10 IT IS AN indisputable fact that the only side from Tyrone to win an Ulster club title are Errigal Ciaran .
But when there was five minutes left on the clock and an exit seemed likely, up popped midfielder Ben McDonnell with three consecutive points to put them into the next round against Antrim champions Eire Óg Cargin, where McGinley will be acquainted once more with the McCann Clann, his brothers in law.
Advertisement In the early stages it looked as if Errigal were fresh looking as they raced into a 0-3 to 0-1 lead. There appeared to be a defensive mix-up in the very first minute as Ciaran McGinley was double-marked, leaving Ruairí Canavan entirely free. Naturally he collected a simple pass and opened the scoring.
The Tyrone champions picked up just after the break with opening scores from Odhran Robinson and Harte. Eunan’s in the meantime had given themselves a leg up by bringing on Niall O’Donnell and his contributions were badly lacking in the first half as he scythed through for a point to add to Conor O’Donnell’s successful free kick as they held the after the third quarter.
Scorers for St Eunan’s: Shane O’Donnell 0-4, Conor O’Donnell junior 0-3 , Conor O’Donnell, James Kelly, Niall O’Donnell 0-1 each.
