Miltown were chasing the game from the outset against an Ennistymon side who were more economical with their scoring chances on the evening. Miltown trailed by 0-7 to 0-3 at half time with a number of missed frees costing Miltown dearly. The loss of senior player Joe Curtin to a hamstring injury also being a major blow. Miltown rallied strongly in the thirq qaurter and cut the gap to 0-8 to 0-6.
