Derry SFC Final/ Bellaghy 1-9 Glenullin 1-9: Glenullin and Bellaghy will meet again at Celtic Park next Sunday after an enthralling drawn encounter yesterday afternoon.
Glenullin were the sharper side in the first half and, with Donal Boylan and Eoin and Paddy Bradley on the scoresheet, they led 0-6 to 0-4 at the interval.
Bellaghy took a grip of the game on the restart, however, and three points from Eoghan Brown saw them edge 0-7 to 0-6 in front after 38 minutes. When substitute Conan Brown added an opportunist goal, Bellaghy looked set for a 22nd county title.
Glenullin fought back and, with Eoin Bradley looking sharp and Basil Rafferty grabbing a goal, they led by 1-9 to 1-7 with four minutes remaining.
But Bellaghy weren't finished and a free from Brown and a point from Gavin Diamond levelled the scores.
