St Eunan’s responded again and Conor Gibbons got his second point from play with another wonderful point.
The game is delicately poised at half-time, St Eunan’s have been the better side and should be ahead by more, but they have kicked hit eight wide’s in the first-half.
Maxi Curran was also dealt a blow when Kevin Rafferty was forced to be substituted after sustaining a nasty eye-injury.
