Cockhill had the better of the first half in front of approximately 800 people, and hit the post in the tenth minute through Gerard McLaughlin.

Rovers struggled and they fell behind in the 31st minute when Ronan Doherty chipped into the net.

HT: Rovers 0-1 Cockhill

Kevin McGrath had a chance to equalise in the 61st minute but Gavin Cullen pulled off a fantastic save.

That proved to be a crucial moment as Laurence Toland scored Cockhill’s second moments later.

Mark Moran missed a penalty for Cockhill, but it mattered little as the Charlie O’Donnell Sports Ground outfit got their hands on the silverware once again.
