Down win and now want a break

Derry 1-16 Down 0-25

The Mournemen, who have been playing every weekend since the start of May due to their Christy Ring Cup success, had a comfortable win over Derry in yesterday’s drawn semi-final at the Athletic Grounds.

A fatigued Down side almost got caught by Derry last week but survived a big scare, and made no mistake at the second time of asking as they led from start to finish.
