Kilmainhamwood 2-07
Cortown 1-12

Cortown second string went top of Football League Division 11 with a hard earned victory on the road in Kilmainhamwood on Saturday evening.

Conditions were the polar opposite to the previous month when referee Peter Skelly was forced to call off the game a matter of minutes before throw-in due to deluge of rain.

The visitors lead by three at the break with the returning Elliot Reilly raising a green flag to give Cortown a 1-6 to 1-3 half time advantage.

Kilmainhamwood found a second goal early in the second half but Davy Wright's charges came good with young guns Jake Coyne and Kian Fitzsimons pointing the way. Substitute Conor Mulroe added the insurance score late on to send his side top after three games.

Cortown: Jammie Costello; Cian Madden, John McGearty (0-1), John Reilly; Gavin Clarke, Daragh O'Halloran, Aaron Smith; Declan Coyne, Markuss Watters; Conor Smith, Jake Coyne (0-4), Daragh Smith (0-1); Tommy Smith (0-2), Kian Fitzsimons (0-3), Elliot Reilly (1-0).

Subs: Micky Costello, Miceal Reilly, Conor Mulroe (0-1).

Referee: Peter Skelly (St Brigid's)
