There was smiles all round for Danesfort on Sunday afternoon in the Michael Lyng Motors Hyundai Final as the 2022 intermediate champions booked their senior spot for 2026 with a memorable 2-20 to 1-16 over a heavily fancied James Stephens (Village) team.
Adrian Burke's side played like a team on a mission with Daire O'Neill spearheading an exceptional half-back line throughout the 60 minutes.
The first half did little to separate the teams with the winners edging the contest 0-10 to 0-9 at the break.

However, the tide seemed to be turning the Village's way when Stephen Manogue netted to put the city side in front by the 49th minute with a 0-15 to 0-11 Danesfort advantage de-constructed after 40 minutes of play.
But if anything the goal generated an inspired response for the champions with goals from Anthony-Ireland Wall (50th minute) and from Fionn Mahony in the dying stages sealing the intermediate crown for Danesfort.
