BALLINA PS 2-02 Thomastown NS 0-07Played at Leahy Park, Cashel on Friday 17th November 2017
It all started off when Billy and Luke went in for the throw-in. A few minutes in, Ballina won a free just outside the area. Charlie took the free and put it in the back of the net. Thomastown scored three points and Billy scored one for Ballina. At half-time the score was 1-01 to 0-03. When both teams came back on to the pitch, Billy and Luke went in for the throw-in once again. During the second-half, Charlie scored another goal and Luke scored a point. Thomastown replied with four points. Coming to the end of the match, Thomastown got an indirect free. The free-taker hit it wide and the referee let him take it again. He passed it out wide and the player took a shot. It hit the crossbar and Joe made an amazing save and kicked it away for the referee to blow the final whistle. The final score was 2-02 to 0-07. Ballina are now County Champions 2017.
