\n Argideen Rangers 4-16 St Finbarr\u2019s 2-13\u00a0\n <\/p>\n
Four first-half goals propelled Argideen Rangers past St Finbarr\u2019s and into the knockout stages of the Co-op Superstores Cork Premier JHC at Riverstick on Saturday.<\/p>\n
A straight Group 3 shootout to see who would progress beyond the Premier JHC group phase alongside Barryroe saw the Timoleague side emerge victorious.<\/p>\n
It means they now face Ballygarvan in the quarter-final phase, with Barryoe against Cloughduv. The top two seeds St Catherine’s and Kilshannig are into the semis while it’s Milford against Nemo Rangers in the relegation playoff to avoid the drop back to Junior A.<\/p>\n
Cathal O\u2019Donovan pointed before the West Cork club\u2019s Sean Walsh galloped clear and billowed the net after four minutes.<\/p>\n
Aided by the wind, Colm Keane replied with St Finbarr\u2019s first score ahead of a marvellous Caolan O\u2019Connor effort. Two Keane frees completed an impressive Barrs comeback and it was level, 1-1 to 0-4, at the 10-minute mark.<\/p>\n
David Murray split the posts but Phillip Flynn hit back to level matters for a second time. Colm Keane quickly restored St Finbarr\u2019s advantage before team-mate Scott Callanan fired into the bottom corner after 17 minutes.<\/p>\n
Argideen\u2019s response was devastating.<\/p>\n
Phillip Flynn converted a free prior to John Michael O\u2019Callaghan netting. Sean Walsh raised his second green flag ahead of Cathal O\u2019Donovan\u2019s sideline cut floating all the way into the Barrs\u2019 net.<\/p>\n
Those three unanswered goals sent Rangers in 4-7 to 1-9 ahead at the break.<\/p>\n
Amid intermittent showers, Murray added another score shortly after the restart.<\/p>\n
Colm Keane reduced the deficit but Sean Walsh\u2019s response kept Rangers six clear. Phillip Flynn and Sean Walsh scores increased Argideen\u2019s advantage.<\/p>\n
Caolan O\u2019Connor notched St Finbarr\u2019s twelfth point prior to Rangers\u2019 Walsh taking his personal tally to 2-5. A superb John Michael O\u2019Callaghan effort made it 4-12 to 1-12 with 10 minutes remaining.<\/p>\n
Colm Keane and Phillip Flynn swapped frees during a scrappy ending enhanced by another long-range O\u2019Callaghan effort.<\/p>\n
A second yellow for Adam Buckley saw the St Finbarr\u2019s captain sent to the line. Ian O\u2019Callaghan\u2019s late goal proved a mere consolation with late Crowley and O\u2019Callaghan points confirming Argideen\u2019s merited victory.<\/p>\n
