GAELIC GAMES

Tyrone’s defence of their Ulster and All Ireland under-20 football titles ended at the first hurdle last night.

They lost their Eirgrid Ulster quarter-final to Down on a scoreline of 2-9 to 1-8 in Omagh.

Down will play Monaghan in next month’s semi-finals, with a first-half Stephen Mooney penalty proving the difference in a 1-11 to 13-point win over Cavan.

Donegal needed penalties to beat Antrim in Ballybofey.

They’ll play Derry in a fortnight after the Oakleafers comfortably saw off Fermanagh by 3-12 to 8-points.
