But it was Kevin’s/Kilian’s who went into break with a 2-5 to 1-3 lead.
After the restart, Na Fianna was able to keep the possession and rewarded hit back with a goal eight minutes and two points in quick succession.
However with corner forward Alli Joyce in flying form with two goals and midfielder Katie O’Neill and left half forward Ciara Richardson impressing, the Tallaght side held firm.
The Mobhi Road side could only register one-point in ther closing ten minutes as Kevin’s/ Killian’s secured the title.
