This match was similar to their first encounter at Lakeview with both sides creating good chances but being unable to take them. Aileach probably had the best chance of the first half in the 42nd minute when Connor Harkin pulled the ball back to Sean McHugh on the penalty spot but he drove his shot wide when well placed. Clonmany had to reshuffle early on when right back Aaron Harkin was injured with Jake Harkin coming on to replace him. Clonmany’s Dessie Doherty had a header just off target as the first half ended and in added injury time Brendan Doherty saw a shot from the edge of the box rise over the bar.
The second half was only 3minutes old when Clonmany keeper Liam McGonigle made a good save from a Ruairi Bradley shot and bravely dived on the loose ball on his goal-line. Aileach’s Sean Mchugh, Ruairi Bradley and Tom Doherty all threatened but some resolute defending by Clonmany kept them to shooting from distance and the game ended in a 0-0 stale-mate.
