Under-21 Football Championships round-up

Kildare failed to score from the 42nd minute onwards against Longford but did enough to claim their first Cadbury Leinster Under-21 Football title since 2008, while Cavan and Donegal advanced to an Ulster final meeting on April 17.

A 31st minute penalty goal from Paddy Brophy proved to be the difference as Kildare claimed a 1-12 to 0-12 final victory over first-time title seekers Longford tonight.
