Kilmessan Shield QF

Torro United 4-6 Muirhevna Mor

Muirhevna Mor edged a 10-goal thriller with Torro, despite having just 11 players available and with the injured Philip Duffy needed to fill the manager’s void on the night.

Torro were in front, but a Paudi Hearty brace earned Muirhevna an advantage, which became 4-2 as the visitors got on top.

But Torro never gave in and tied at 4-4, before Jimmy Cooney’s penalty put the Blues ahead again. The winners proceeded to win by two, as Hearty finished with three, while Brendan Hughes and Martin Smith added a goal apiece.

Muirhevna Mor: Michael Cooney; Brian Begley, Ciarán Jameson, Micky O’Kane, Jimmy Cooney; Seán Conlon, Brendan Hughes, Gary Clarke, Vinny Smith; Paudi Hearty, Martin Smith
