An Intermediate first-round tie between Strabane and Stewartstown of Tyrone descended into farce as a tense game reached the end of normal time.

Although Stewartstown would go on to win the game 1-19 to 2-13 after extra-time, with the game already well into injury-time and both sides level, tempers frayed and a mass brawl ensued.

Bringing many more than the 30 players on the pitch into contention, it does not make for an especially positive sight.
