In sharp contrast to their opening two league games, here the lads in green made a great start with Corey Cambridge, tormentor in chief, notching up 1-1 inside the opening ten minutes. Clondrohid to their credit never let the heads drop and rattled over 3 unanswered points before a second Cambridge goal gave the Cross breathing room again.
The home team pointed again to keep in touch but before half time Corey Cambridge added a point before securing a hatrick of goals. In the games best move, White’s Cross through Aaron Kent from the back led to Johnny Noonan kicking a fine point to leave it White’s Cross 3-3 to 0-4 up at half time.
To their credit Clondrohid came raging back at White’s Cross in the second half and soon cut the deficit with a rally of points. Two goals put them ahead and only for a wonderful diving save from Cross keeper Jack Kiely, it might have been curtains. White’s Cross however managed to stand up and be counted and Ronan Quain and Padraig Cloran led the charge from the back.
A Sean Kelly free gave White’s Cross hope before Billy O Hara helped himself to a goal and a point to leave the sides level with minutes left. It was left to star man Corey Cambridge to sweep over the winning point to give White’s Cross their second win from three league games.
