COUNTY LEAGUE. Asdee  0-11  Rathmore “B”  3-12. Even though a10 point win might suggest that the East Kerrymen had it all their own  way but nothing could be further from thetruth as they had to battle hard against a dogged Asdee side before securingvictory at Walsh Park on Saturday evening last. However on saying that Rathmorewere full value for their victory as their sheer strength and pace along withtheir goal-scoring power was always a problem for the home side whereas Asdeewere always struggling to put scores on the board and kicked a total of 12wides over the hour. The game got off to a blistering start as play ebbed andflowed until the 6th minute John Hickey the Rathmore midfielderkicked a fine point; 4 minutes later the impressive Paul O Carroll had thesides level. Then we had drama at both ends; firstly it took a super save byJames Kelly in the home goals to deprive what looked like a certain Rathmoregoal and not to be outdone the Rathmore custodian Kenneth O Keeffe did likewisebut when the ball spilled,Mike Breen put his effort over. Then in the 15thminute a high delivery into the Asdee goalmouth saw the ball go into the netoff a defender. Points were exchanged as the game changed from end to end andin the 29th minute only a point seperated the sides Rathmore 1-5Asdee 0-7.However the pacy Rathmore men were always that little step ahead andin the 30th minute full forward John O Keeffe struck for a welltaken goal. John Hickey closed the first half scoring at Rathmore 2-6 Asdee0-7. On the change over the home side got stuck in and after kicking 2 terriblewides full back Martin Collins came up field to split the uprights followed byanother by Paul O Carroll with 4 minutes gone cutting the deficit down to just3 points. Then after 7 minutes corner forward Mark T Reen put the East Kerrymen back in the driving seat when henipped in for goal number three. Kieran Kelly and Paul O Carroll and substituteDenis McCarthy and Tadhg O Mahony exchanged points leaving it 3-8 to 11ptsafter 24 minutes. At this stage Rathmore used up their bench as in fairnessthey were always a step ahead as we approached the final minutes of the game.Both substitutes Denis McCarthy and Donal Moynihan along with John O Keeffewithout reply closed the scoring.There was some excellent performers on the hometeam and none more-so than Paul O Carroll at corner forward who kicked over 5superb points, Cyril Dineen was another who caught the eye.
