Ballyhale atone for the heartbreak of 2022 and clinch a ninth All-Ireland title.
Ballyhale Shamrocks 1-22 Dunloy Cúchullains 1-15 A FAMILIAR TALE on All-Ireland club final day, Ballyhale’s blend of experience and hurling prowess mixing together to land the silverware.They shook off a stubborn and determined challenge of Antrim’s Dunloy here at Croke Park. The memories of their nightmare finale last February when Ballygunner stunned them with a goal at the death, may have floated through when Dunloy came within a point at the 50th minute mark.
Keelan Molloy arrowed in a crossfield ball, Conal Cunning gathered and popped it to Ronan Molloy, who met it at pace, brushed off a bunch of defensive challenges and found the space to rifle a shot across Dean Mason to the net. That finish was bundled home by Cody in the 15th minute and he came close to rattling the net twice more, repelled by impressive reaction saves from Ryan Elliott. He finished with 1-5, a reflection of his sterling afternoon’s work. Aside from that star triumvirate, Ballyhale had eight different players who contributed a point from play.That depth in the scoring charts was something Dunloy couldn’t replicate.
