On a week when their senior counterparts will meet in an Allianz League Divison 1A final, Cork got the better of Limerick in their Fulfil Munster Under 20 Hurling Championship clash on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Cork won out by a 4-18 to 0-21 scoreline at Supervalu P\u00e1irc U\u00ed Chaoimh, with first-half goals from Barry O’Flynn and Barry Walsh providing the platform for the Rebels who led 2-11 to 0-11 at the interval.<\/p>\n

Walsh scored a penalty on 40 minutes to extend the advantage, before Johnny Murphy added a fourth in front of a 2,924 attendance.<\/p>\n

There were no goals at Cappoquin Logistics Fraher Field as Tipperary edged to a 0-16 to 0-15 win over Waterford, with Mark Hartley missing a late free that would have levelled it up for the D\u00e9ise.<\/p>\n

Waterford also saw a Davy Comerford penalty saved in a result which allowed Tipp to make it two wins from two in the provincial championship, having beaten Cork last week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Cormac
\nLouth’s Cormac McKeown celebrates<\/p>\n

Louth were 2-13 to 1-13 winners over Dublin in Group 1 of the Dalata Hotel Group Leinster Under 20 Football Championship.<\/p>\n

Donach Magee helped himself to a late goal for the Dubs but the damage had already been done thanks to Adam Gillespie’s penalty and a Padraic Tinnelly goal earlier in the half for Louth.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Westmeath beat Wexford 1-14 to 2-08 with Will Scahill contributing 1-02 for the visiting side at Chadwick’s Wexford Park.<\/p>\n

In Group 2, Longford defeated Carlow 2-20 to 1-13, while Meath saw off Laois by a comfortable 3-12 to 0-10 margin.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in Group 3, Kildare earned a five-point victory over Offaly, winning 1-17 to 1-12.<\/p>\n

In the Dalata Hotel Group Ulster Under-20 Football Championship, Shane Callaghan proved Donegal’s hero at Celtic Park, as the visitors edged out Derry by 1-12 to 1-11.<\/p>\n

The sides were level at 1-06 apiece at the interval, but it was Donegal who had established a two-point buffer heading into stoppage time.<\/p>\n

Ger Dillon’s two-pointer had looked like earning the Oak Leafers a draw, only for Dillon to decide the encounter with the last kick of the game.<\/p>\n

Monaghan finished with a flourish to stretch away from Antrim and record a 1-16 to 0-10 win at Dunsilly.<\/p>\n

\"24<\/p>\n

Leading by 0-06 to 0-05 at the interval, Killian Kierans, Shane O’Connor, Caol\u00e1n Clerkin and Matthew Finn each added to the Oriel County’s tally before Max McGinnity (above) grabbed a late goal for the authoritative victors.<\/p>\n

A free-scoring Tyrone overwhelmed Down in Dungannon, cantering to a 4-23 to 1-14 triumph.<\/p>\n

A brace of goals from Red Hands wing-back Brian Gallagher and a Shea McDermott major meant the game was effectively over as a contest at half-time, with the hosts leading the hapless Mourne men by 3-13 to 0-05.<\/p>\n

Down staged something of a revival after the restart, with Eoghan Travers’ clinical two-pointers and a goal from substitute Conor Ward eroding their hefty deficit.<\/p>\n

However, McDermott’s second goal halted Down’s momentum as they cruised to victory.<\/p>\n

Armagh were similarly comprehensive winners in a 2-26 to 0-10 hammering of Cavan at the Box-It Athletic Grounds.<\/p>\n

Eoin Duffy, Aaron Haughey and Diarmuid O\u2019Rourke each registered two-pointers in the early stages, with Fergal Boylan netting just before the break for the Orchard County.<\/p>\n

Jack Dobson’s points proved rare attacking highlights for Cavan, but the result was long beyond doubt before Sean Burke registered Armagh’s second goal of the night in added time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On a week when their senior counterparts will meet in an Allianz League Divison 1A final, Cork got…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":377680,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":{"0":"post-377679","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/377679","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=377679"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/377679\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/377680"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=377679"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=377679"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=377679"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
