Improved Turloughmore get off mark in topsy-turvy clash

CONOR Shaughnessy’s dramatic 65th minute score earned Turloughmore a precious first point in Group 1 from a contest where only minutes earlier they had looked odds-on favourites to win against a below-par Gort side on Sunday evening.
A rousing second half display from Turloughmore, in which a mixture of heroic defending and poor shooting kept the south Galway men scoreless for 24 minutes, gradually opened up a three-point lead as their vociferous support got behind the winless troops in black and white.
