SENESCHALSTOWN booked a place in a third successive u-21 FC final following Joe Sheridan’s inspirational semi-final display against Wolfe Tones at Pairc Tailteann on Sunday afternoon.

Sheridan was outstanding throughout and contributed a personal tally of 1-7, but he also added much more to his team’s overall display as he grafted at midfield and defended when necessary.

Wolfe Tones started well and were 1-5 to 0-4 to the good at the break as they looked set for a shock victory. However, after the resumption Seneschalstown established a firm hold on the contest.

Sheridan began operating around midfield and almost immediately made a telling impact with a penalty goal. Wolfe Tones failed to score in the final quarter as the Yellow Furze boys found their form.

James Byrne excelled in defence and along with Paul Carey and Davy Byrne they ensured Wolfe Tones were restricted to a few long-range opportunities. Francis Sheridan closed the scoring with a late goal.

Team: B. Grogan, C. Duffy, J. Bryne, P. Carey, C. Gleeson, S. Dillion, D. Byrne, R. Ruddy, G. Conlon, K. Casey (0-1), Brian Clarke (0-1), R. Darby, B. Sheridan, J. Sheridan (1-7), B. Clarke.
Subs – S. Sheridan for R. Darby, A. Dunne (0-1) for B. Sheridan, F. Sheridan (1-0) for B. Clarke, I. Carroll for S. Sheridan.
