Tyrone hammer Louth to defend U20 All-Ireland title
Tyrone retained the All-Ireland under-20 title with a 5-16 to 0-17 win over Louth at the Athletic Grounds. The victory marks a third title in four years for the Red Hands at the grade. Tyrone's ability to find the back of the net proved the difference against a Louth side appearing in their first ever final at the level. Noah Grimes (2-6) and Eoin McElholm (2-4) along with a late goal from substitute Shea McDermott marked a blistering attacking display. Paul Devlin's side led 2-7 to 0-8 at half-time, Grimes hitting his first goal on 12 minutes after a fine pass from Matthew Quinn. Louth responded to lead by one with five to the break, Sean Callaghan's two pointer the pick of their efforts. McElholm latched onto a poor kick-out to feed a composed Grimes, who scored a second goal as the Red Hands landed 1-3 just before the whistle. Tyrone could have ended the game as a contest early in the second half but Conor O'Neill had his effort for a goal remarkably saved by Tiarnan Markey. Louth responded with a two pointer from Tadgh McDonnell and scores from Lennon and McDonnell to cut the deficit to three. Despite the fright, McElholm who featured for the senior side in Saturday's win over Donegal showed his class with two goals in five minutes before substitute McDermott added gloss with a classy fifth goal on the whistle. Tyrone: C McGarvey; F Nelis, B Hughes, C Devlin; C Daly, J Clarke (0-1), C Donnelly (0-1); C Devlin, C O'Neill (0-1); C Sheehy, E McElholm (2-4), M Quinn; N Grimes (2-6), R McCullagh (0-2 1f), L Og Mossey.

Tyrone edge Donegal to retain Ulster under-20 title
Ulster under-20 football final: Tyrone 1-19 Donegal 2-14 (after extra time) Red sky in Owenbeg as the Red Hands saw off Donegal in extra time to retain the Ulster under-20 title. The reigning All-Ireland under-20 champions scraped past in a game of inches. Eoin McElholm, Ruairi McCullagh and Shea McDermott all hit two-pointers for Tyrone in four minutes early in the extra period. Senan Carr slalomed in to fire to the net for Donegal and Tyrone needed a last-gasp save from Conan McGarvey to deny Conor McCahill a goal that would've snatched the prize for Donegal. READ MORE Ten minutes from the end of normal time, Cathal Rua Ó Gallchoir slammed in for a Donegal goal, but Tyrone stormed back and a brace from the boot of McCullagh evened the abacus to force extra time. Tyrone were 0-5 to 0-4 ahead at half-time and five minutes into the second half, after Liam Óg Mossey's effort hit an upright, Joey Clarke, the captain, rifled home. The first half was an often-wasteful affair, Tyrone leading despite eight wides. As the sun hid behind the Sperrins again, Donegal – who beat Tyrone by eight in the group stage – needed a Sean Martin point and Ó Gallchoir's goal looked as if it might tip the tie in their favour. Ultimately, nine points from McCullagh saw the holders prevail. From the frying pan now to the fire: Kerry awaits. Tyrone: C McGarvey, F Nelis, B Hughes, C Devlin, C Daly, J Clarke (1-0-0), C Donnelly (0-0-1), C Devlin, C O'Neill; C Sheehy (0-0-2), E McElholm (0-1-1), M Quinn (0-0-1), N Grimes (0-0-1), R McCullagh (0-1-7, 1 '45, 4f), L Mossey. Subs: S McDermott (0-1-0) for Grimes (54), D Donaghey for Sheehy (70), S McCann for Mossey (75). Donegal: P Mac Giolla Bhríde; A Neely, N Prendville, C Ó Gallchóir (1-0-0); M Campbell, C McCrea, C McGinty (0-0-2); S Martin (0-0-1), K Muldoon (0-0-2); C McMenamin, F Roarty, M McDevitt; C McCahill (0-1-1), D Gildea, S Carr (1-0-1). Subs: D Monaghan for McMenamin (10), S Callaghan (0-1-3, 2f) for Gildea (h-t), D Mulholland for McDevitt (49), D Gallagher for Neely (56), T Carr for Monaghan (56), M McDevitt for Campbell (65), M Campbell for Muldoon (75), Muldoon for McDevitt (79), Monaghan for McGinty (79).
