Naas play Maynooth in the Minor A Football Championship Semi-Final tonight.
SOCCER
The Republic of Ireland will remain in League B of the Nations League after a 3-2 win over Armenia at the Aviva Stadium.
Goals by John Egan and Michael Obafemi sent the Boys in Green into a comfortable lead, but Ireland then conceded two sloppy goals in two minutes around the 70 minute mark.
However, the home side were awarded a penalty in the last minute following a V-A-R intervention.
Robbie Brady converted it, as Armenia saw two players sent off for protesting the decision.

The Under 21 side suffered a painful defeat on penalties to Israel in their play off for the European Championship, missing out on a place in next year's finals in Georgia and Romania.
Tyreik Wright, Evan Ferguson and Dawson Devoy all missed their attempts as Jim Crawford's side lost 3-1 on spot kicks.
GAELIC GAMES

The Wexford County Board is to propose that a Special Congress of the GAA abolish the 96 week maximum ban for physical or verbal threats to referees.
They are proposing a lifetime ban as a penalty which may be considered instead.
Wexford are also suggesting an overhaul of the 'give respect, get respect' campaign to ensure a comprehensive education programme for mentors, players and supporters.
