Nenagh Celtic 2 – 2 Killavilla 

Nenagh again had to play their home fixture in the opposing teams pitch as the search continues for a new patch to call home. The game started off quick with Ruairi Murphy putting killavilla ahead in the early stages of the game. Things could have easily took a turn for the worse when Michael Ryan was sent off for two  yellow cards in quick succession but if anything killavilla pressed on and put a lot of pressure on Nenagh Celtic and they didn’t look like they were down to 10 men. Nenagh did get a goal back through Shaun Kevin and the teams went into half time at 1-1.

Ruairi Murphy  grabbed his second goal of the game from a perfectly placed free kick to put killavilla 2-1 up.
