In the second half Castle came out like a team possessed and scored with a Rory McDonald header. Gerry Timmons then reduced the arrears to 1 just a few minutes later and it was very much game on. Castle pushed and pushed but couldn't find the equaliser as much as they tried with chances coming from Mick Curran and Peter Fagan. Crettyard held strong and took all 3 points in what can only be described as a game of 2 halves. Best for Castle Peter Fagan, Rory McDonald and Gerry Timmons while David Kelly, Noel Leech, Darragh Kiely stood out for the winners.
