Douglas, who failed to do the same in the 2001 final by a point, got off to the perfect start and led 1-2 to 0-1 following a great goal by Michael Carroll.
St Anthony's came storming back from the early Douglas onslaught and, with Shane Keane in outstanding form, they were level after 15 minutes before an Andy O'Connell goal just on the stroke of half time helped them to a 1-5 to 1-4 lead at the break.
