As for Cuala, Mattie Kenny's men weren't at their brilliant best, but they deserve so much credit for always grinding something out when they need it. For every blow Na Piarsaigh landed, these boys just wouldn't go away.
The tight nature of the game was perhaps best summed up by Con O'Callaghan. Being man-marked by Na Piarsaigh's stocky soldier Michael Casey, O'Callaghan threatened but he was well marshaled throughout. He wasn't given an inch and that would prove crucial in the outcome of this game.
Casey won that battle, and by the time the chances came to O'Callaghan in extra time to win it for his side, he was so ground down after a tough day at the office that he wasn't able to take them.
That's a credit to 22-year-old Casey, who is one of the best man-markers around.
Players like Sean Moran and David Treacy and Jake Malone stood up for Cuala when they were needed most.
80 minutes couldn't separate them. Na Piarsaigh will be kicking themselves, but Cuala live to fight another day.Antrim GAA deny allegations from senior hurlers as row rages on
