Kiely notched a remarkable 4-1 in a repeat of last year’s decider.
MIKEY KIELY TORTURED University of Galway in the Electric Ireland Fitzgibbon Cup final for the second year running, blasting four goals this time around to secure back to back titles for UL.
The writing was already on the wall for Jeff Lynskey’s University of Galway side though they came roaring back into the contest with eight points in the lead up to half-time. There were scores too for Clare’s Mark Rodgers who overcame a back injury to start while Darragh Corcoran and Dean Mason, All-Ireland club winners with Ballyhale Shamrocks, added more significant medals to their personal collections.
English’s dynamism in attack was a real problem for the University of Galway defence and he set up Kiely’s first goal before sniping two points himself. Twomey pointed himself in the closing stages while O’Connor, Coughlan and Rodgers all got onto the scoresheet too in a fully deserved 15-point win.
