Ardagh Moydow win the Longford U-21 ‘B’ Football Championship title

Ardagh Moydow . . . 2-11    Carrick Sarsfields . . . 1-11 

When Eoghan McCormack shot over the bar in the 50th minute the Carrickedmond/Legan amalgamation were holding what appeared to be a comfortable 1-10 to 1-5 lead. 

But Ardagh Moydow, overcoming the setback of the black card for Dylan Reilly in the early stages of the second half, dominated the remainder of the match to outscore Carrick Sarsfields 1-6 to 0-1 to take the title.

Lively corner-forward Connor Hogan scored the crucial goal to close the gap to just a single point and the force was firmly with Ardagh Moydow who landed their last score from a free converted by Dylan Coady in the 9th additional minute after a number of stoppages in the second half.
