Danske Bank MacRory Cup round three
IN Wednesday night’s MacRory Cup action, Conal McGeough’s late, late goal rescued a draw for Abbey (2-7 to 1-10) in a tough battle against Monaghan side St McCartan’s.
McGeough rattled the net in a low-scoring first half, which the Newry side led 1-3 to 0-3.
McCartan’s pulled a goal back with 10 minutes remaining to lead by two points and they looked odds-on to see the game out before McGeough completed his brace for a share of the spoils.
Abbey have won, lost and now drawn games in their first three rounds of the campaign.
A few miles down the road in Burren, St Colman’s were 2-6 to 1-5 victors in their game against St Patrick’s, Dungannon.
It’s the Violet Hill side’s first win of the competition this season, having also drawn and lost in their last two rounds.
St Patrick’s, Armagh and St Michael’s, Enniskillen are eliminated from the competition after finishing bottom of their respective groups.
