Shandonagh Ladies didn't let that deter them and a foot block resulted in a penalty for Shandonagh and goal by Laoise Quinn. Milltownpass scored another goal and Shandonagh player Sarah Kincaid receiving a yellow just before halftime put Shandonagh on full alert; however Shandonaghs Ciara Glennon was in form and  Shandonagh went into the break with a  lead; 1-05 to 2-0.
