Kilcormac Killoughey 1-17 St. Mullins 1-12 NA FIANNA HIT the afterburners late on at Parnell Park to secure an AIB Leinster club SHC semi-final date with St Martin’s of Wexford.
Having lost to O’Loughlin Gaels narrowly in last year’s final, and with this year’s Kilkenny representatives now out of the picture, Na Fianna will fancy their chances of going one better. Willie Hyland’s visiting side, who hadn’t played since the Laois final six weeks, did start well and led 1-4 to 0-3 after Stephen ‘Picky’ Maher’s 10th minute goal.
Advertisement It wasn’t Na Fianna at their best but the pressure was on Clough Ballacolla to push on and they couldn’t, opening the door for the hosts to kill it off with that late spurt of scores. Meanwhile, star studded Kilcormac-Killoughey were pushed all the way in a 1-17 to 1-12 quarter-final win over St Mullins of Carlow.
