Erris roused themselves and Matthew Walsh instigated a shoot on sight policy to get a goal back. Owen McHale chipped the goalkeeper to bring the scores level and as Ballina were buckling Erris went for the kill. Incessant pressure told eventually as a Ballina defender attempted to swap jerseys with an Erris player in their penalty box. PENALTY.
Shea O’Donoghue with nerves of steel slotted the ball home in slow motion. Erris 3-2 up at half time.
