Bohan holds key

All-Ireland Club IFC Final/Moycullen (Galway) 2-9 Fingal Ravens (Dublin) 1-6: Two goals from Conor Bohan finished off the challenge of Fingal Ravens at Croke Park yesterday.

A point before the whistle from Pat Lydon left it 0-6 to 0-5 at the break with his brother Mark extending the gap to two points just after the interval.

Moycullen were rocked by a Ravens' goal on 38 minutes, with Stephen Madigan firing home.

The Galway side dominated after that and Thomas Higgins levelled before Bohan found the back of the net on 51 minutes.

Although Ian Kavanagh was to cut the gap back to three points, Bohan added a second goal in injury-time.
