Our minors exited the championship tonight with a two point defeat to Lissycasey after extra time. In a cagey start, Miltown traded points with Lissycasey with our scores coming from placed balls and the boots of Sean McMahon and Andrew Skerritt. A Cian Mahony point combined with two impressive saves from Andrew Skerritt and great defensive displays from both Paul Frawley and Damien Devereaux ensured the sides entered the break level with four points each.

Throughout the 2nd half, the sides continued to trade scores with points from Cian Mahony and Seán McMahon. A Lissycasey goal ensured they went into the lead however a late Seán McMahon point ensured the game went to extra time on a scoreline of 1-8 to 0-11.

Miltown started extra time well with early points from Eanna O Connor and Cian Mahony. Lissycasey struck back however a Conall Meade point at the end of a well worked team move ensured Miltown led at half time in extra time on a scoreline of 0-14 to 1-10.

A Seán McMahon point was quickly followed by a Lissycasey point in the second period of extra time as both teams continue to perform strongly. The crucial moment of the game came in injury time in the 2nd half of extra time when Lissycasey struck for their second goal ensuring they prevailed on a scoreline of 2-11 to 0-15

Hard luck to our minors who exited the championship in the cruelest of circumstances after a spirited display tonight and a number of great performances in the group stages. Thanks to Mikie Neylon and his backroom team of Gearoid Curtin, Enda O Gorman, Peadar Cleary, Michael Griffin, Sean O Brien, Noel McGuane, Brendan McMahon, Padraig Frawley and Pauline O Halloran for their work and commitment during this strange year. This year saw a number of players develop greatly with all hopefully continuing to perform well in the Miltown jersey in the coming years.
