Errigal Ciarán find that bit extra against Dr Crokes to reach All-Ireland club football final

The Canavan brothers sparkled as Errigal Ciarán saw off Dr Crokes by 2-18 to 1-19 after extra time at Cedral St Conleth's Park in Newbridge to qualify for a first All-Ireland Club SFC final.

Darragh and Ruairí shared a 1-13 haul as the Ulster champions downed the two-time All-Ireland champions from Kerry, pushing for home in the second period of extra time with a second goal, scored by Joe Oguz.

It was Darragh Canavan whop grabbed the Tyrone side’s first three-pointer, but the Munster men responded to go in front, and they were on the verge of victory, before Peter Óg McCartan sent over a dramatic equaliser deep into added time at the end of normal time.

Darragh Canavan slipped past two defenders to pop over the opening point in the second minute, but with Brian Looney and Mark O’Shea driving their challenge, the Kerry champions hit three points in as many minutes through Cian McMahon, Tony Brosnan and Micheal Burns.

However, they missed the attacking thrusts of Gavin White, tasked with keeping Darragh Canavan quiet, and he could do nothing to prevent the Errigal Ciarán captain from firing over a couple of scores, along with three superb efforts from play from younger brother Ruairí.

It was Ruairí’s free that edged the Ulster champions back in front early in the second quarter, following a let-off which saw Brosnan cut through to fire an angled shot into the side netting at the other end.

Errigal executed a couple of vital turnovers through Ben McDonnell and Cormac Quinn to counter for the Canavan brothers to edge them into a two points lead.

But Errigal lived dangerously at times at the back, and the Munster title holders finished the half strongly, Looney combining smartly with David Shaw for midfielder Mark O’Shea drill over
