Curraha defeat Skryne in B League Div 4

Curraha gained sweet revenge on Skryne for the defeat imposed on them in last September's Div 5 final when they came to Skryne and went home with both points in the B league Div 4 match which was played on Friday night under lights in Skryne. Curraha were first out of the blocks with two quick points on the second and fourth minute of this game but Felim O'Rourke steadied the ship with a well taken free on five. 

With eight minutes gone Curraha stamped their authority on the match with a goal.  However Skryne responded with a goal by O'Rourke from the penalty spot after Niall Morley was fouled.  Brian Smyth levelled proceedings with a further point on fourteen minutes and then Skryne went in front with a point from Paddy Doherty.  Curraha posted two more but Niall Morley kept Skryne in touch with a further point with five minutes left in the first half.  However that was as good as it got for the home side as Curraha took control with a second goal on twenty seven minutes and followed up with a point on the stroke of half time to leave the score at the break Skryne 1 - 4, Curraha 2 - 6.

After the break the visitors posted three further points in the first ten minutes.  Skryne pulled one back when Alan Carty slotted on over the bar. However Curraha posted a further three to a just one more minor from Carty on fifty seven minutes.  The final score was Skryne 1 - 6; Curraha 2 - 12.
