A devastating third quarter in which Offaly outscored Meath 1-3 to no score was the key for Paschal Kelleghan’s charges as they secured a Leinster U21FC quarter-final berth against Kildare next week.

DUNSHAUGHLIN turned the clock back to reach the Meath SFC final for the first time since 2002 when completing their three-in-a-row sequence of success over hot favourites Donaghmore/Ashbourne at Páirc Tailteann yesterday.

AFTER ousting reigning All-Ireland champions Dublin, Meath were dumped out of the Leinster U21 FC quarter-final at Navan last night.
