Letterkenny IT 2 V 1 Cork IT Captain B J Banda sent his team through to the last four of the Third Level Division One League semi-finals with a dramatic last minute extra-time winner over Cork IT just as an penalty shoot-out was looking a certainty. Lyit started well and took a deserved lead in the 15th minute when good play between Lee Mc Laughlin and Conor Gormley sent B J Banda racing through and he held off a defender before slotting the ball into the far bottom corner of the net. The visitors were almost back on level terms within two minutes, Lyit keeper saving well from Killian Fitzgerald after a corner had not been dealt with. And from the resulting corner it took a combination of Finn McClure and BJ Banda to block a goalbound shot . Charlie Collins reports. The Cork lads grew into the game and began looking dangerous going forward but it was the home team who again went closest to scoring , Banda denied by a good Darragh Newman save in the 31th minute and then when the keeper spilled another Banda effort , Gaby Aduaka was almost in before the keeper recovered just before the break. Aduaka was just wide in the 57th minute , while at the other end Craig Lynch’s piledriver flew just wide of Jamie Bell’s goal frame.
