DIVISION 1 FOOTBALL LEAGUE
Raheen Senior Footballers made it 2 wins out of 2 in Div 1 of the League as they claimed the spoils against Ferbane last Thursday evening in Geashill on a scoreline of 3-11 to 1-08. Raheen got off the a flyer of a start scoring the first 5 points in a row inside 10 mins. Then Ferbane got going scoring 3 points followed by their goal midway through the half to take the lead. This is how it remained until the last 5 mins of the half when Raheen added 2 points to Ferbane’s 1. Then just on the stroke of halftime a disputed lineball saw the ref throw it up which Raheen won kicking it high into the square where John Crombie was on hand to jump with the keeper and he got the touch to punch it to the net for a goal which gave Raheen a lead of 1-07 to 1-04 at the break. The sides added 3 points apiece inside 20 mins of the second half before Raheen clinched it with their second goal on 23 mins similar to the first Dylan Hyland’s high ball in to Jack Keogh to punch it past the keeper to the net. Raheen’s Paddy Rigney put over a free before wrapping it up with a piledriver of a shot on 27 mins to the top corner of the net for goal no 3. Ferbane did add a pointed free in stoppage time but it was too little too late.
