Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Balor Glen Crowe made the kick off which started today's match. If Balor Glen Crowe had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 3rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 7th minute, Booak Ryan left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Dookinelly fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-0. After 9 played minutes Corbaly got a freekick which was hit by Benedict Matthews. Balor Glen Crowe struck a weak shot in the 14th minute. Scott Kelly didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Corbaly.

After 36 played minutes Dookinelly got a freekick which was hit by Barr Tierney. After 37 played minutes, Corbaly's Boland Cassin shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Scott Kelly came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line.
