U20 round-up: Dubs ease past Louth, Wicklow snatch win

Dublin safely sealed their place in the Eirgrid U20 Leinster semi-finals after a sparkling 15-point victory over winless Louth.

The Wee County are yet to win at this grade since the change in age back in 2018.

Jim Lehane's side were in no mood for charity and after beating Wicklow in the opening round, they now top the group with a round to spare.

Joe Quigley slotted home a 42nd minute penalty to all but seal the one-sided contest at that early stage of the second half.

Louth saved face with fine performances from senior panellists Seán Reynolds and Kieran McArdle, both of whom are eligible for next season.

Despite the loss Louth are not out of things yet and can progress with a final round win over Wicklow, but they struggled for a foothold in the game in Parnell Park.

Needing to take every chance, Tom Matthews' early effort was saved off the line by a covering Alex Gavin. That summed up the night as Dublin’s hunger ravaged Christy Grimes and Derek Walsh’s youngsters.

Much like Sunday’s league play-off between the two counties at Croke Park, the Wee County sat deep, soaked up the pressure and tried to contain Dublin. With the counter attacks not finding the target it soon became a long night.

Harry Butterly did give Louth the lead from a ’45, but that would be it and it soon began the Luke Breathnach show.

The young Ballinter St John full forward was in Dessie Farrell’s thoughts last season and we could well see the powerful marksman later in the season for the senior side such was his quality on the night.

Josh Finlay smothered Darragh Dempsey’s low shot but there would be no reprieve for Louth. The hosts struck seven points in a row. Dempsey registered a superb mark before tapping over his first score.
