Minor: Minor Match Report

minor match report Maryland/Tang 4-9 Tyrrellspass 1-6 A greatly under strength Maryland/Tang played Tyrrellspass on Sunday last. Playing into a stiff breeze Maryland/Tang took the match to Tyrrellspass and were soon rewarded when Emmet Moran’s shot dipped into the top corner of the net for the opening score. Martin Rock added a further 1-1 before Ryan Allen chipped the goalie to leave Maryland/Tang leading 3-1 to 0-1. Maryland/Tang defence were holding firm and limiting Tyrrellspass to shooting from afar with Aaron Elliot, Darragh Mc Cormack and Paul O Neill defending stoutly. Maryland/Tang were well on top with the Rock brothers, John and Martin in fine form and Christy Hermbusche winning a lot of ball around the middle. Tyrrellspass did start the second half in determined fashion but were unable to make inroads against a Maryland/Tang defence where Billy Elliot, Kenny Egan and Darren Allen were excellent. Maryland/Tang picked off four pts through Martin Rock and Darragh Burke. Tyrrellspass were then handed a lifeline with a very harshly awarded penalty in the 45th minute and converted. Maryland/Tang reeled off further pts through John Rock, Peter Cunningham and Martin Rock and ran out worthy winners at the final whistle. This was a tough encounter and a great team performance from a understrength Maryland/Tang .
