Drumsurn 0-06   4-15 Foreglen

The seniors suffered a heavy defeat at home to Foreglen on Sunday 25th July. Both teams will meet again in the Championship on Thursday night and a much improved performance will be required if they want to keep their season alive.

Having contained Foreglen in the first half going in at the break only three points down a different Drumsurn team emerged to start the second half. Foreglen scored 2-12 for no reply over the next 26 minutes as Sean McGuigan blew the final whistle four minutes early because this game was over as a contest ten minutes after the restart of play.

Anthony McLaughlin, Stephen Harbinson and Pierce McNickle scored a brace of points each, but the dismissal of Mark McLaughlin early in the second half, the inability to control midfield and failure to win our own kick outs cost the seniors dearly in the second half.

In defence, Craig Chewning and Owen Ferris showed some of the senior members of the panel how to play football, but even they had to concede defeat with the constant bombardment from the Foreglen attack.

Hopefully a number of key players will return for the re-match on Thursday night scheduled for 7:15pm at Fr. McNally Park Banagher.
