Skryne 0-16, Trim 2-11

Skryne suffered a narrow one point defeat against Trim in Round 8 of the A League, Division 1a in Fr McManus  Park. Two Trim goals, one in each half proved to be the difference between the sides as Skryne lost by a single point.

It was nip and tuck in the opening ten minutes of this game with both sides registering two points apiece. Andrew Canavan and Ian Davis were both on target for Skryne. Trim hit their opening goal with 13 minutes on the clock, but three points in a row from Ian Davis(a free), Shane Smyth and Paddy Fox saw Skryne restore parity. Trim added two points of their own which were cancelled out by a double from Ciarán Quinn. The sides traded scores again with Shane Smyth adding his second point to leave the match level at half-time. Skryne 0-09, Trim 1-06.

Trim hit the ground running in the opening minutes of the second half, scoring the opening point before winning a penalty which was dispatched to the Skryne net. Again Skryne had to play catch-up. Ian Davis pointed a free for Skryne and this was followed by a third point for young Ciarán Quinn who has made an impressive start in his first season at senior level. Another pointed free from Ian Davis and a point from play from Trim left two points between the sides at the midway point of the half, Skryne 0-12, Trim 2-08.

 

Trim extended this lead to three before Skryne hit a hat-trick of points to level matters with seven minutes remaining. The points coming from Niall Finnerty(a free), Oisín Keogh and Ian Davis(a free). However Trim were not prepared to give this game up easily and two further points saw them lead by two in the closing stages. Niall Finnerty pulled it back to just a single point, but Skryne couldn’t find an equaliser and Trim held on for a victory by the finest of margins.
