Then it was a home from home for Ireland, but this time there were very few Irish in for the game - mainly families of those playing. </p> <p>With my son Shane involved, it was an opportunity for the rest of my family to go and support. He, along with Pearse Hanley from Mayo, Willie Mulhall from Offaly and Ray Cullivan from Cavan, grabbed valuable scores in that last quarter to level the game.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> Sport Football Mon, 17 Apr 2006 00:56:49 -0600 http://www.irishasia.com/node/140 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <p>Cork 1-11 Dublin 1-10: Rebels repel Dublin revival<br /> Michael Foley at Páirc Uí Rinn</p> <p>A HOME game against Dublin has always been a cherished old poultice, passed down through generations of Cork footballers to help them escape their sick bed. Twenty-three years have now passed since Dublin recorded a win in Cork, and after a difficult start to the League their most recent visit was gratefully availed of by the locals.<br /> By the end of a lively game Cork could count eight scorers and a selection of fine performances on a desperately mucky night. Their defence knitted tightly together and when Dublin started to jab a finger in Cork’s chest midway through the second-half, their composed response was deeply impressive.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> Sport Football Sun, 12 Mar 2006 17:36:59 -0700 http://www.irishasia.com/node/108 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <p>Shanghai has been confirmed as host for the 2006 Asian Gaelic Games.<br /> The AGG, one of the fastest growing events in the Asian sporting calender, will take place on October 14-15.<br /> The dates are slightly later than normal, due to the clash with a variety of sporting events in Ireland such as the All-Ireland finals and the Ryder Cup at the K-Club in late September.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> Sport Football Wed, 18 Jan 2006 22:05:54 -0700
