Armagh Harps 0-13 Dromintee 2-7 

THE Dromintee junior team whipped out their specialist move once again at Abbey Park today - a draw that felt like a defeat. 
Played in blazing heat, Dromintee were five points up heading into a generous nine minutes of injury time with a gallant Harps landing a point followed by a pair of excellent two-point frees. 
Perhaps wary of the sun, Dromintee decided that quarter one was for conserving energy as Harps moved 4-0 ahead.
The water break arrived at a good time and after a few stern words, Dromintee produced an excellent 15 minuted, rattling off 1-4 without reply to lead by three at the break. 
The goal was the best move the side have produced all season as Niall Carnegie did well to get the ball to Micheal McCoy who picked out Steven Dyas, who had cut brilliantly, with a fine handpass with Dyas landing his second goal of the season. 
The Harps started the second half well but Dromintee were always able to respond, and they pushed for home with Donal O'Neill taking his personal tally to 1-2 with a neat finish. 
Dromintee led by five and looked to be only getting stronger, but a number of good opportunities were butchered. 
That kept Harps alive and they finished well to take a draw in what was a very sporting contest played in testing conditions. 
Five games in and it's one win if you're of a pessimistic nature; one defeat if you're more optimistic.
