Offaly And Laois Stars Score Screamers In Fitzgibbon Cup Contest

Friday, 19 January 2024 14:16

Charlie Mitchell and Tomas Keyes made memorable contributions to last night's contest.

Offaly starlet Charlie Mitchell delivered one of the highlights of the first round of the Fitzgibbon Cup last night.

The Kilcormac-Killoughey man ripped through the SETU Carlow defence for Galway University to score a remarkable solo goal:

'Fantastic goal from the only non-Galway man..'

Offaly's Charlie Mitchell was the only starter for @UNIGAL1 not from Galway and produced this magical play in tonight's @ElectricIreland Fitzgibbon Cup win at @SETUCarlowGAA_

His finish in the second half for his second goal was more opportunist and saw the team's only non-Galway player top score in the game with 2-1.

Laois' Tomas Keyes played a starring role in the SETU's defeat, his goal was every bit as impressive for its power and accuracy:

‘Top corner finish by Tomas Keyes..’

See the Camross corner-forward fire a superb goal for @SETUCarlowGAA_ in tonight’s @ElectricIreland Fitzgibbon Cup clash with @unigal1
