Mount Temple out-half Ian Kelly kicked a late penalty to secure a dramatic victory over Templeogue at Westmanstown yesterday.

With under two minutes remaining and his side trailing by a point after two Templeogue penalties from Pierce Walsh, Kelly held his nerve to slot over from in front of the posts.

Kelly also scored the only try of the game in injury-time of the first half.
