Cian Mohan had level things with a free, Sean Mohan level the match again at 2pts each, prior to the run of scores. Tom Moyna received a good ball to score a goal on 14mins, followed by points through Paul Sherlock, Declan Treanor, Michael McCarville & Sean Mohan to carry them into a lead of 1-6 to 1-3 at halftime. Toome were on the ball from the restart of 2nd half and soon the sides were level at 1-6 a piece by 42nd minute. Sean Mohan responded with a free, followed by another good score and Scotstown restored the 3pt advantage with a Paul Sherlock effort. Victory was sealed when Adrian Carbin tapped over a late free to leave the final outcome at 1-10 to 1-8.

Cillian Sherry, Adrian Grew, Owen McCague were also on target in the first half. The 2nd half was a bit competitive, Donaghmoyne registered two goals of their own but Ronan King hit 1-2 in the 2nd half and with further scores through Jack Mohan, Mark Maguire and a fine goal from substitute Mark McKenna towards the end left the result in favour of the home team. There were fine performances from Darragh McCague in goals and the defence played well, particularly Donal McKenna, Eamon Hamill & Eanna Deery to name but a few as it was a team performance.
