Leeside are out of the Munster Junior after loseing away to West Cork team Drinagh Rangers in the quarter final last Sunday.Leeside started  the game playing some good football on a very poor surface for a game of such importance ,but as the game wore on Drinagh came more into  it playing more direct football.Drinagh had one or two half chances that Cieran  Mullins delt with ,Alek Nodwell had the first real chance of the game when the ball broke to him after a great Leeside move but with the keeper out of his goal Alek lifted his goalbound shot over the bar.Leeside had the ball in the net after 30minutes,a great ball by Derek Delea released Alek Nodwell inbehind the Drinagh defence,Alek ran at the goal before knocking the ball back across goal to Derek who placed his shot low past the Drinagh keeper.Leeside though they had scored but for some reason the linesman raised his flag and gave offside when clearly there was no offside.Drinagh took the lead ten minutes later a long ball played forward was knocked back across the Leeside goal where a Drinagh player was unmarked and from ten yards placed his shot into the corner past Cieran Mullins  . Leeside came out in the second half pushing for an equaliser and should have got it after five minutes when Derek got in behind the defence but the ball got stuck under his feet ,he got a weak shot away that the keeper turned around the post for a corner. Drinagh went two up fifteen minutes into the second half, Jason Keegan sliced his clearence over the Leeside keeper who had come to collect the ball which left the Drinagh  forward a simple tap in to make it two nil. Leeside piled on the pressure after this but the Drinagh defence held firm,Leeside had all the play and did every thing but score as tim was running out.Leeside got one back with ten minutes to go when Derek headed in at the far post after Connor O Leary had knocked the ball back across the goal. Leeside now laid seige to the Drinagh goal creating chance after chance. Derek though he had equalised in injury time but with the keeper beat his shot came back off the post.It wasn't going to be Leeside's day as Drinagh held firm and advanced to the semi-final where they meet Clonmel town.
