BT Rannafast Cup semi-final :

St Patrick's Maghera 2-11       St Patrick's Dungannon            1-10 (AET)

St Patrick's Maghera needed extra time to edge out St Patrick's Dungannon in a thrilling BT Rannafast Cup semi-final yesterday afternoon.

Although Maghera led by four points at the end of the first half, Dungannon pressurised them in the third quarter and closed the gap to a single point.

Good work Sheamy lad!!

With 10 minutes to go though Gerald Bradley fired to the Dungannon net to put his side four up.  The Academy dug deep and responded brilliantly to draw level with 1-1 from the excellent Ruairi McGlone.

With time running out Deasun Quinn gave them the lead only for Neil McNicholl to send the game into extra time with a very late score.

Disaster struck Dungannon in the first minute of extra time with Ruairi McGlone picking up a second yellow card and leaving his side a player down.

Maghera dominated the possession after that and at the start of the second period McNicholl grabbed a vital goal.

Although Quinn hit two frees to narrow the gap, Paul McAtamney fired over an insurance point for Maghera.

Maghera : Gerald Bradley 1-5, Neil McNicholl 1-3, Stephen O'Hara 0-1, Paul Gunning 0-1, Paul McAtamney 0-1.

Dungannon : Ruairi McGlone 1-1, Deasun Quinn 0-6, Conor Mallon 0-2, Stephen McGrath 0-1, Frank Burns 0-1.
