Manors midfield and defensive units were extremely solid with Senan Kelly, Adrian Stephenson, Tom Sweeney and Ronan Fox dealing with all Ballymote threw at them. Zach Gethins made two fine saves to keep Ballymote scoreless at the break. Manors dominance paid off just before halftime with Karl Gethins finding Jack Attard in space and he brillianlty beat the keeper from fifteen yards out for 2/0.

The second half was more of the same from Manor. Manor again dominated the half dealing comfortably with Ballymote and defying the conditions with some excellent passages of play both from a defensive and attacking viewpoint. Zach Gethins was tested twice by Ballymote but he made comfortable saves from both attacks. Manor held out and took all three points. A great team display from all with all Manor players contributing to a remarkable turnaround from the last time the sides met.
