Five-goal Tyrone thriller secures Ulster county back-to-back All-Ireland U20 titles
Tyrone secured back-to-back Dalata Hotel Group All-Ireland U-20 Football Championship titles with a conclusive victory over Louth in the final in Armagh. Leading by two points with 20 minutes to go, the holders went on to score 3-7 in the final third of the game, in contrast to Louth's 0-4. Advertisement While the 14-point margin may have flattered them slightly, there was no denying the stronger team won. Forward Noah Grimes clinched the Man of the Match award with a thrilling 2-6 tally while colleague Eoin McElholm, who struck 0-7 in last year's final win over Kerry, wasn't far behind with his 2-4 haul. There was an impressive late cameo from substitute Shea McDermott who contributed 1-1, helping to seal the Tyrone's eighth title at the grade. Louth's lack of goals came despite three strong chances, while eight wides and a number of score attempts that dropped short proved costly for them. Advertisement The young county team that beat Mayo at the All-Ireland semi-final stage seemed powerless to prevent the game suddenly swinging back in Tyrone's favour.

In pictures: Tyrone celebrate All-Ireland win as Louth's hearts are broken
Noah Grimes and Eoin McElholm were the stars as they notched a stunning 4-10 in total from play as Tyrone breezed past Louth to win the U20 All-Ireland Football Championship. The Ulster giants were 1/6 favourites with some bookies for this evening's final and were too strong for a Louth team that had done phenomenally well to reach this stage. Despite being overmatched, Louth did manage to reduce the deficit to just two points at one stage of the second-half, but Tyrone showed their class and pulled away down the stretch. They scored a staggering 3-9 in total in the second-half, swiftly putting to bed any hopes of a Louth comeback. The final whistle was the cue for joyous scenes of celebration as Tyrone's stars of the future celebrated a monumental win. Tyrone scorers: Noah Grimes 2-6, Eoin McElholm 2-4, Shea McDermott 1-1, Ruairi McCullagh 0-2 (0-1f), Joey Clarke 0-1, Conor O'Neill 0-1, Caolan Donnelly 0-1.

Tyrone hammer Louth to defend U20 All-Ireland title
Tyrone retained the All-Ireland under-20 title with a 4-16 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 Grims, who scored a second goal as the Red Hands landed 1-3 just before the 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.

Noah Grimes and Eoin McElholm star as Tyrone secure back-to-back under-20 titles
All-Ireland under-20 football championship final: Tyrone 5-16 Louth 0-17 This was an evening that red-hot forward duo Noah Grimes and Eoin McElholm will not forget any time soon. Between them, the lethal attacking pair scored 4-10 to help secure back-to-back Dalata Hotel Group All-Ireland under-20 titles for Tyrone. Leading by just two points with 20 minutes to go in a terrific back and forth at Armagh's Athletic Grounds, the holders suddenly hit the afterburners and left Louth with scorch marks. They outscored Louth by 3-7 to 0-4 in that final third of the game and while the 14-point margin may have flattered them slightly, there was no denying their quality. READ MORE Grimes clinched the Man of the Match award with a thrilling 2-6 tally in front of 7,944 while senior talent McElholm was not far behind with his 2-4 haul. There was an impressive late cameo too from substitute Shea McDermott who contributed 1-1, helping to seal the Red Hand County's eighth title at the grade. Louth will kick themselves for failing to score a single goal despite three decent chances over the hour while eight wides and a number of score attempts that dropped short proved costly for them. But they will have no complaints about the result as Tyrone, with seven different scorers and an excellent display from Matthew Quinn, locked down back-to-back titles for the third time in the county's history. Louth, Leinster champions for the first time since 1981, played into a stiff first-half wind but created chance after chance in the opening quarter and will rue their errant kicking in this period. In the first 10 minutes alone, Louth kicked three points but also dropped three more score attempts short and booted another one wide. Two minutes later, another point attempt that dropped short, this time from Adam Gillespie, fell kindly for Tony McDonnell to get a shot away that was saved. The giant fear among the big Louth crowd that made the journey up the M1 was that they'd be made to pay for all the misses. And sure enough Tyrone snatched a goal against the run of play in the 15th minute. Grimes this time cut in from the right beyond Micheal Reid and blasted left-footed to the net. Noah Grimes is on 🔥 for — The GAA (@officialgaa) It tied up the game at 1-2 to 0-5 though Louth kept their foot down and continued to benefit from an aggressive press. Midfielders James Maguire and Sean Callaghan were dominant for Louth initially and a terrific Callaghan two-pointer in the 25th minute left them 0-8 to 1-4 up. Louth, who beat Mayo at the All-Ireland semi-final stage, weren't flattered by the lead but were also powerless to prevent the game suddenly swinging back in Tyrone's favour. Grimes, Ruairi McCullagh and Conor O'Neill added points before a Louth kick-out was intercepted by McElholm who fed Grimes for a second goal. It was a terrific finish as Grimes, unable to bounce the ball a second time after a neat dummy bounce, dropped the ball and finished it soccer style to the net. Tyrone now led 2-7 to 0-8 at half-time and stretched the gap to seven with points from McElholm and Grimes after the restart. Louth got it back to a two-point game when they sandwiched a Tadhg McDonnell two-pointer with a series of singles. Just like the first-half, Louth had opportunities to pull decisively clear but failed to convert 39th and 41st-minute goal chances. This time there was no coming back for Louth who were buried by an avalanche of Tyrone scores between the 40th and 46th minutes. McElholm burst through for two trademark goals, the first in the 43rd minute after Liam Og Mossey's spadework and the second three minutes later after a Conall Sheehy lay-off. Grimes, McElholm and Caolan Donnelly added points in the 2-3 blitz while sub McDermott popped up with a late 1-1. Tyrone: C McGarvey; B Hughes, J Clarke (0-0-1), Conor Devlin; C Donnelly (0-0-1), C Daly, F Nelis; Conan Devlin, C O'Neill (0-0-1); C Sheehy, L Og Mossey, M Quinn; N Grimes (2-0-6), R McCullagh (0-0-2, 1f), E McElholm (2-0-4). Subs: E Donaghy for Sheehy 53 mins, D Donaghy for Mossey 55 mins, S McDermott (1-0-1) for Conan Devlin 58 mins, L Lawn for McCullagh 60 mins. Louth: T Markey; K Martin, P Tinnelly, M Reid; Tadhg McDonnell (0-1-1), C McKeown, C McGinty; S Callaghan (0-1-1), J Maguire (0-1-2); S Lennon (0-0-1), C MacCriosta (0-0-1), P Grimes Murphy; A Gillespie (0-0-1, 1f), Tony McDonnell (0-0-2, 1f), D Dorian (0-0-1).
