Our U21s claimed a great, hard fought victory on Sunday afternoon in the Cork Credit Union U21 Championship Semi-Final against a strong Donoughmore side who had defeated Lisgoold last Sunday. Both teams were very evenly matched, serving up a tight and competitive encounter in windy, blustery conditions at Pairc Mhichíl Naofa in Mahon.

Donoughmore held a narrow one point lead at halftime and created a couple of goal chances during the opening half. The second half remained just as balanced, with the sides finishing level at eight points apiece at full time—sending the match into extra time, as the game had to be decided on the day.

Neither team registered a score in the first period of extra time, but St. Michael’s pulled away in the second half of extra time, scoring three points to Donoughmore’s single score to secure the win.

St. Michael’s will now face St. Colum’s in the final at Easter, with the exact date TBC.
Final Score after extra time St Michaels 0-11 Donoughmore 0-09

Well done to the @donoughmore girls for a great game.
