Bohermen dominated the opening fifteen minutes and playing with the wind in to the O’Mahony’s end led 1-5 to 0-0. Ella Weldon was outstanding in this period scoring 1-4. The introduction of Poppy Kiernan had the desired effect for the Lismullen girls and before the break the talented forward raised two green flags to leave just two points between the sides at the break.

To their credit Bohermeen never gave up and were rewarded with a goal from full forward Hollie Rose McDonnell before the final whistle.
