Comment
For the winning Lisbellaw lads Turlach Russell worked exceptional had in goals, particularly in the matches' second half, when a rejuvenated Carrickmacross side step up their attacks on the St Patrick's defence. He was well supported by fellow defenders Dylan Bannon, Aaron Magee, Jack Gavin and Connor Goodwin.
Out at mid-field Barry Duffy had an outstanding hour, well supported by Connor McShea. While in attack Mike Williamson, Eoin Cleary and Stephen Breen worked hard.
