Munster Intermediate Final

Miltown 0 -7  Clyda Rovers 0 - 10

Miltown's 2013 campaign ended with defeat in the Munster Intermediate Final to Clyda Rovers from Cork in the Gaelic Grounds on Saturday in a game played in ideal conditions in front of an official attendance of 1,010
Miltown got off to the perfect start and were four points up after only six minutes with scores from Conor Cleary (2),Eoin Cleary and Eoin Curtin giving the large Miltown support hope of a first Munster crown.
Clyda however gained a foothold and their possession based game though very unattractive proved effective and by the end of the first quarter they were on level terms with Miltown finding it very hard to get their hands on the ball.
At the halftime whistle Clyda had a two point lead on a scoreline of six points to four and were dominant in a lot of positions.Miltown introduced Micheal Malone at half time but unfortunately Clyda still maintained a stranglehold on possession and Miltown found scores very hard to come by,it was only as the final whistle approached that they tagged on three points from Eoin Cleary (2) and Eoin Curtin.All hopes then rested on a goal but unfortunately Clyda shut up shop and held on to win the game.
