Macroom responded with 2 points from Billy Murphy to go in at half time a point down.

Macroom again started the 2nd half scoring to equalise and it was a tough second half with Macroom taking the game to Douglas but they just didn't convert their chances into scores.  With 10 minutes to go they still led by 2.
