Antrim booked their place in the final of the Ulster Hurling Championship with an eight-point win over Derry at Casement Park in Belfast.

It was a lot closer than last year's final when Antrim crushed the Oak Leafers, but the title holders always had the edge to win 2-14 to 0-12.

There were only two points in it when Antrim got their first goal through Paddy Richmond on 18 minutes.

The second came from Jim Connolly 11 minutes after the interval.

Connolly caught a long ball from Ciaran Herron who blasted into the net to open an eight-point lead which the Saffrons retained at the final whistle.
