Carr’s goal in the closing stages sealed a place in the final for Abbey, managed by Mark Young and Leo Gallagher.

St Eunan's danger man Sean Patton was carefully watched throughout the early stages with Daniel McIntyre and Aaron McGrory making life difficult for the forward.

St Eunan's pushed hard in the last 10 minutes but it was to be the Abbey's day.
