But Coalisland got a goal through Milena Mihadjuka and a point before the break to go in just a point behind at half-time.

Geoghegan added to the tally after the restart but it took Katie Wallace’s last minute point to bring the game to extra-time at 0-12 to 2-6.

They came alive again in the final 20 minutes however, with Ava Caulfield, Patrice Boyle and Ulitah Boyle adding to their tally for a one point lead coming to the second half of extra-time.
