Edenderry minor footballers recorded their second win of the championship with a two point victory over Ferbane on Wednesday evening. The reds trailed their opponents 0-2 to 0-0 before leveling the game, but Ferbane went back in front 0-4 0-2 before the reds sparked into life and took the lead after a terrific goal from Conor McCarthy.

Edenderry held a 1-8 0-6 lead at half time but this Ferbane are very strong and as expected they came back into the game with a goal from Offaly minor Cian Johnson and it was a draw game 1-12 a piece with just ten minutes to go.

However, two good scores from Jack Brady and an excellent point from substitute Shane Cummins helped seal a memorable victory for the young reds.
