Ballinamere opened the scoring with a goal straight from the throw in and added 2 points before Raheen got off the mark with a goal on 9 mins when Paddy Rigney’s run in and shot was blocked down by the keeper and scrambled into the net by Ian Buckley. The remainder of the half did not get any better for Raheen as they added just 2 pointed frees as Ballinamere pulled clear adding 2-07 to lead at the break 3-09 to 1-02. Both sides added 3 points apiece early in the second half before Raheen scored their 2nd goal on 23 mins when a 65 taken by Brian Corcoran landed in the square and flicked to the net by Keith Quinn.
