Athenry dictated the opening stages and ought to have scored in the first ten minutes as nifty attackers Cathal Fahy and Johnny Mernagh went close for the Galway outfit.
Waterford fashioned some opportunities themselves in an interesting clash as Keith Sheridan and Stephen Reinl both forced neat reflex saves from Athenry custodian Adrian Cronin.
It was similarly eventful after the break as Ollie Keogh and Mernagh nearly netted goals for the Galway team, but Halloran emerged as the hero.
