Youths applied a bit more pressure in the second period but, as in the first half, gave the ball away constantly and thus created little in terms of goal-scoring chances. The best efforts from the Youths came from two free-kicks when Conor English and Rocks Keenan worked the UCC keeper. UCC also managed to hit the outside of the post with a header during this period. With ten to go, Youths brought on Gary Delaney, Conor Whittle and Danny Furlong. Youths pulled one back with five minutes to go when Rocks set up Peter Higgins about 25 yards out, and he smacked it nicely into the top-roght corner to bring it back to 2-1. Youths applied further pressure after that but didn't look likely to get the equaliser to leave the final score at 2-1 to UCC.
