A pulsating tie here the Kells Road saw the two teams have chances to win but the best fell the way to the Kilkenny side.

A strong wind favouring Roc Celtic in the second half didn't have the desired effect for them as Gary Maher's outfit came good in the dying minutes, with a well spotted diagonal pass from David Grincell finding Drennan in space to net.

Elsewhere, it will be a Bridge Utd and Thomastown Utd McCalmont Cup Final after 2-1 wins over Clover Utd and Caslewarren Celtic respectively.
