Nenagh set for crucial points following abandoned game

Nenagh AFC's crucial clash with Carew Park in the Limerick District League premier division was abandoned due to injuries on Sunday.

A nasty clash in the 85th minute, in which a player from both sides were carried away injured, saw this game called up a few minutes prematurely with the Tipperary lads well in control, leading 7-1.
Dan Butler and Jack Sanders scored two apiece with Tommy Martin, Nathan Kelly and Archie Mitchell also netting for Nenagh who are likely to be awarded the three points which would see them move eight points clear from second from bottom Charleville.

Newport had been leading 2-1 thanks to goals from Wayne Collins & Dan Powell but Athlunkard scored the equaliser to deny the 'C' team their first win of the season.
