GALWAY’S COROFIN WERE crowned FBD Kilmacud Crokes Football 7s champions with victory over Antrim’s St Gall’s this afternoon.
Corofin warmed up for their Galway county final showdown with Salthill-Knocknacarra on October 13th, with a 2-6 to 1-8 final win.
It was a memorable win for the Galway side after losing out to St Gall’s in last year’s final after a penalty shootout.
Goalkeeper Dave Morris was the Corofin hero as he slammed a late penalty to the net after minutes previously he had been beaten from the penalty spot by St Gall’s CJ McGourty.
