Louth have little answer to Longford’s superior firepower

Longford u21s 1-17 Louth u21s 1-04: Longford advanced to the semi-finals of the Leinster U21 Championship for the third year in-a-row with 13 points to spare over Louth.

Dublin now await Longford in the semi-finals. The Dubs defeated them at this stage last year but Longford were the last side to beat Dublin at this grade, in Parnell Park in 2013.

The Midlanders dominated most of the game and rarely looked troubled. Louth did cut the gap to four points in the 39th minute with a goal from Conor Grimes but that was to be their final score of the game as Longford finished the game strongly.
