The sides traded blows and Derry had it back to 0-16 playing 3-08 as the clock ticked into injury time. Sean Hughes replied with a free of his own but successive scores from Cahir Spiers, Higgins (f), Murphy and Shea Birt saw Derry right back in it at 0-10 to 2-04 with 37 minutes played. A placed ball from Tyrone's Noah Grimes broke the sequence to secure Tyrone their four point half-time lead but Derry were far from out of it. Luckily for Tyrone, Molloy was in the right place at the right time to fire home from close range and give his side a 2-03 to 0-3 lead with 18 minutes gone. It was cancelled out by McElholm's first first of excellence minutes later only for Ciaran Chambers to edge Derry back in front again. Tied at two points apiece, a flowing Red Hand move saw the ball moved between the hands of Callum Daly, Barry McMenamin, Molloy and eventually find it's way to McElholm.
