SENIOR FOOTBALL
Listowel Emmets had a well-deserved victory over Ardfert in Round 4 of Div. 3A of the County League played in Ardfert on Sunday afternoon.
The teams were evenly matched in the first 20 minutes. Christopher Nolan pointed two early frees replied to by David Keane for Listowel. Emmets scored their first goal in the 24th minute and they went on to lead by 1-05 to 3pts at half time.
The second Listowel goal came early in the second half when an Ardfert kickout was intercepted. This was followed by point in the 8th, 13th, 15th& 17th minutes of the half. David Griffin never stopped trying for Ardfert and he was rewarded with a cracking goal in the 20th minute. Both teams introduced a number of substitutes and Listowel coasted to an easy win on a final score of Listowel Emmets 2-12, Ardfert 1-05.
