Coleman’s first-half goal helped Doon to a 1-9 to 0-5 lead at the break but by then Adare were down to 14 men following the sending off of Jack English on 19 minutes. After that it was all Doon with Coleman and Daragh O’Donovan, who finished with six points, to the fore.

Mikey Mackey and Killian Hannon, who hit 1-4, worked tirelessly for Adare but it was to no availe as Doon powered on.
