Sligo senior football champions Tourlestrane produced a rousing second-half comeback to reach the Connacht senior club final with a 0-8 to 0-6 semi-final victory over St Mary’s of Leitrim in Carrick-on-Shannon on Saturday.
Tourlestrane, after an indifferent first-half, trailed a youthful St Mary’s side by 0-6 to 0-2 at half-time.
However, Fergal O’Donnell’s side showed much more urgency and improvement in the second 30 minutes, scoring six unanswered points and keeping their opponents scoreless to book a place in the Connacht club final on December the 4th.
Tourlestrane boss Fergal O’Donnell spoke to Ocean FM’s John Lynch after the game.
