Crotta O’Neills did not make it easy on their supporters. They led by three points down the stretch and had to withstand a late Lixnaw barrage on their goal. If Lixnaw had rattled the Crotta net, then the game would have required a replay.

Crotta manager Brendan Mahony was also a former player and he knows what pain the supporters and players of Crotta have gone through since 1968.
