Antrim's Kevin Niblock

St. Gall's remain on course for an eighth Antrim SFC title in succession after Conor McGourty's 12th minute goal was the difference in Saturday's semi-final against Creggan at Glenavy.

Two Ruairi McCann frees had the Kickhams 0-2 to 0-1 in front before McGourty's major - which came after his penalty had been saved - put the Milltown men on the road to victory. They went on to hold a 1-5 to 0-2 lead at the break, but with McCann helping himself to 0-6 (0-5 from frees) and centre back Martin Johnston kicking 0-2, Creggan battled back in the second half.

However, St. Gall's sealed their place in the final against Cargin thanks to late points from Kevin Niblock (free) and McGourty.
