From the off she made an outstanding save in Monaleen’s first attack and was also able to keep out a penalty moments later.

Monaleen went two points ahead before Siofra Ní Chonaill opened the scoring for St Joseph’s on six minutes.

Full-forward Siobhan Flynn had two goals for Doora/Barefield in the opening half to give them a 2-2 0-5 advantage at the sounding of the half-time whistle.

On the restart, it was Monaleen again who started brightly. They had three points without reply, a white flag from Flynn gave Barefield a one point lead, they were reduced to fourteen when Aisling Hannan was dismissed after picking up a second yellow card.

Extra time saw Doora/Barefield hit two goals, Flynn’s hat-trick arrived via a penalty and Ciara Duggan to see them the provincial crown.
