21 mins – Cormac Doherty is somewhat fortunate to win a free in front of the Vincent’s goals but Paul Bradley scuffs it into the hands of the keeper. He really should have tapped that one over.

Two more quick fire wides for Slaughtneil. That’s their sixth so far today. They’ve been wasteful and should be in front.

33 mins – Mickey Moran’s men lead after Bradley’s fine free sailed over.

SAVE! Fabulous reaction save by Slaughtneil keeper Anton McMullan. Varley got a fist to Quinn’s placed ball and almost turned it into the net. Slaughtneil are yet to concede a goal in the championship.

Slaughtneil are happy enough to play keep ball but they’re getting a little bit nervy and giving up possession easier than they’d like.

Three minutes to play.
