Louth remain on course for a historic Leinster football treble after their minors powered to a comprehensive 2-17 to 1-8 win over Dublin this evening in Naul, setting up a provincial decider against Offaly on Monday, May 19th.

There were just 14 second gone when Tadhg Devaney got the Wee County off the mark and they kicked on to go six clear through a Jack Martin goal, with Cian Rooney having another effort cleared off the line immediately afterwards.
