Ryan McEvoy’s late point earns Down a precious point against Westmeath

Photograph: James Lawlor/InphoThe race for promotion from Division Three will go down to the final round of games after Ryan McEvoy secured a dramatic draw for Down in Mullingar on Sunday.

With five wins from five beforehand, and the highest scoring rate in the division, Conor Laverty’s side didn’t kick on as expected though and were outscored by 0-9 to 0-4 over the next 25 minutes. The final few minutes were terrifically entertaining but also error-strewn as both sides chased a winner. When referee James Molloy eventually blew for full-time, a couple of players were wrestling on the ground behind him, just about summing up the frenzied finale.

Clare’s 0-15 to 0-12 win over 14-man Antrim on Saturday has kept them in the promotion picture. They led by six at half-time and held off a second-half Antrim rally to win, thanks in part to Mark McInerney’s 0-4 haul. Sligo and Offaly shared the spoils, drawing 0-13 to 1-10.
