“It’s nice to be champions” – Aodh Ruadh boss Brian Gillespie

After the half time break, Aodh Ruadh outperformed the odds-on favourites Gaoth Dobhair to win the Senior B Championship in MacCumhaill Park on Sunday.

The score was tied at 0-04 to 0-04 at the break.

Damian Weber scored a goal  four minutes into the second half to give his team a three-point lead. The Ballyshannon team continued to gain ground after that, but a late rally by the Gaeltacht Men saw them score four points without a response, but it wasn’t enough to win the match.

It ended, Goath Dobhair 0–09, Aodh Ruadh 1–07.

After the match-winning manager Brian Gillespie said “It’s nice to be champions”, he was also happy to see his players “winning something.”
