BALLINCOLLIG AND CARBERY Rangers booked their spots in the semi-finals of the Cork senior football championship tonight.

Ballincollig claimed an eight-point victory in a game where they were in front by 0-8 to 0-4 at half-time. John Kelly and Niall Allen helped them go 0-14 to 0-7 clear by the third quarter mark and a team that contained Cork seniors Noel Galvin and Patrick Kelly, along with 2010 All-Ireland winner John Miskella, closed out the match from there.
Muskerry got a late goal through Cork senior Fintan Goold while they finished the game with 13 men following the dismissals of Noel O’Leary and Peter Kelleher.
Carbery Rangers were 1-13 to 1-8 victors over fellow West Cork side Clonakilty in Enniskeane. The Rosscarbery based club now take on the winners of Bishopstown and Clyda Rovers, who drew 0-10 apiece last night, in what will be their third semi-final appearance in four years.
Carbery Rangers were ahead by 1-7 to 0-5 at the interval but Clonakilty mounted a revival to only trail 1-10 to 1-8 entering the closing quarter. Yet Carbery Rangers fashioned a five-point success as they finished strongly and ensured they have built on last week’s fourth round replay win over defending champions Castlehaven.
