Laois set to meet Oak Leaf

MONAGHAN’S reward for yesterday’s agonising Ulster final defeat to Tyrone is a clash with national league champions Donegal while beaten Leinster finalists, Laois will meet resurgent Derry in the third round of the All-Ireland SFC Qualifiers.

Galway and Meath will meet for the first time since their All-Ireland final clash in 2001 while Louth have been drawn against Cork.

The latter games will probably go ahead next Saturday while the sides defeated in provincial finals yesterday (Laois and Monaghan) have another week to recover.
