Louth undone by Canning hat-trick as season ends with defeat
Nicky Rackard Cup Louth 0-20 Roscommon 4-17 (Full report)
Louth's ambitions of finishing the season on a high with a win at home to Roscommon, were blown out of the water on Saturday at Downdallshill, during a 10 minute second-half spell when the visitors hit an unanswered 2-4 to turn a five-point deficit into a five-point lead. There was no way back for Louth after that.
Three second half goals, two from Sean Canning, cemented Roscommon's win and, coupled with Armagh's defeat of Sligo, booked the Rossies place in the Nicky Rackard Cup final where they will face Mayo.
