Derry and Monaghan progressed to the Ulster U20 football semis with victories over Cavan and Armagh respectively.

ROSCOMMON SECURED A bye straight into the final of the Connacht U20 football championship with a 13-point win against Leitrim in Ballinamore on Wednesday evening.

A final push inside the last 10 minutes against Leitrim yielded an unanswered 1-3 — Roscommon’s goal coming courtesy of Bobby Nugent — and those late scores ultimately proved to be difference in sealing top spot. Mayo looked to be firmly in control as they led 0-7 to 0-3 at the break, but managed just two points as defending champions Sligo — led by Luke Marren’s 0-6 — blitzed them in the second half to progress at their hosts’ expense.

Oisin Doherty scored the game’s only goal on 43 minutes as Derry ran out seven-point winners in Owenbeg, 1-11 to 0-7.
