SFC half-time scores

Half-time scores in today's first qualifying round SFC matches:

Monaghan 1-05 Longford 0-06, Clones, 4.30pm

Referee: M Daly (Mayo)

Damien Freeman's fifth minute goal has helped Monaghan into a two-point half time lead in front of 2,000 in Clones. Freeman scored after a quick interchange with his brother Tom, but the Ulster side have hit eight wides. Longford are relying on the free taking of Padraic Davis and have hit just one point from play.

Clare 0-07 Sligo 1-04, Ennis, 4.30pm

Referee: M Deegan (Laois)

Clare, against the wind, and Sligo are level in Ennis at half time. Michael McNamara hit a thirteenth minute goal after Dessie Sloyan had seen his initial attempt blocked down.

Kilmurray forward Michael O'Dwyer hit four points from play immediately after that to hand the Banner a short-lived lead. Points from Kieran Quinn, McNamara and a late free from Gary Down have the sides level.

Carlow 0-10 Down 1-08, Dr Cullen Park, 4.30pm

Referee: J Geaney (Cork)

Simon Rea has notched five points as Carlow are just one point behind Ulster heavyweights Down at half time. The corner forward hit over a '45 on the half hour and the closing point from the right wing to nudge the home side within a score.

Benny Coutler goaled for the visitors at 0-05 to 0-06 down, and they did manage a 1-08 to 0-08 lead before Rea and Mark Carpenter brought Carlow back.

Wicklow 1-05 Derry 1-10, Aughrim, 4.30pm

Referee: P Russell (Tipperary)

An injury time penalty goal from Trevor Doyle, who has 1-04 (2f) to his name, has Wicklow five points down at the break.

Derry opened up well and with Paddy Bradley goaling, they were 1-03 to no score. Indeed they had a 1-07 to 0-05 lead with three minutes remaining before Doyle clipped home the goal, as Tommy Gill was fouled by Colm McGuckian.

Louth 1-05 Antrim 0-05, Drogheda, 4.30pm

Referee: P McGovern (Galway)

Louth had a 0-05 to 0-01 lead with Mark Stansfield (0-02) and Michael Hoey (0-02) heading their scorers. With Kevin Madden and Kevin Brady on target, Antrim were brought back into it before the Wee county stole in for a goal - a Stansfield penalty, awarded for a foot block, in injury time.

Dublin 2-12 London 0-01, Parnell Park, 4.30pm

Referee: B Tyrell (Tipperary)

It's a procession in Parnell Park. St Vincent's Tomas Quinn has hit 1-04 as Dublin lead by 17 points. Alan Brogan has also netted, with Round Towers' Brendan Egan hitting a late point on 35 minutes for the visitors. Senan Connell (0-04) and Colin Moran (0-02) have also notched good scores.

The Tipperary v Fermanagh match was cancelled.
