Glen Rovers Club Notes
August 07, 2014
Match Report
The seniors continued their strong form in the Hertfordshire Championship with a comfortable 0.11 to 0.5 victory.
Glen Rovers started to put their stamp on the game by going 0.3 to no score up in first 20 minutes. Eire Og worked their way back in to the game but were lack penetration in forward line and could only get one score before the break. This was made hard for the Oxford men as there were strong and commanding performances from the full back line of Eoin O'Callahan, Ken Hayes. Emmet Duignan replaced Fintan Daly due to a black card and eased into the game very well. Score of the game was by Brendan Crowley just before halftime where the score was 0.4 to 0.1.
The second half Rovers started very fast with quick fire points Donald Magee scoring some great points from midfield. The forward line then went on to keep scores ticking over and eased off once 0.9 to 0.3 up. The game died out as both team shared scores and a final score line of 0.11 to 0.5
