The finalists in the McElvaney Recycling Under-21 Football Leagues were decided on Tuesday. Both Division One semi-finals produced one-point games, which saw Emerald Sarsfields and Truagh edge past Scotstown and Latton respectively. Magheracloone cruised to victory over Emyvale in Division Two and their opponents will be Ballybay, who battled past Killanny.
The battle for the last two semi-final places in the Platinum Tanks Reserve Football League Division One will go to the final day after Wednesday’s games, with Magheracloone and Clontibret are now in pole position to finish third and fourth. Magheracloone got a walkover from already-relegated Tyholland, while Clontibret beat Monaghan Harps. The top two, Scotstown and Castleblayney, also had narrow wins over Truagh and Latton respectively.
Doohamlet increased their lead at the top of Division Two without kicking a ball as Corduff conceded their match, while neighbours Drumhowan and Ballybay played out a draw and Donaghmoyne moved off the bottom with a big win over Carrickmacross.
Emyvale’s win over Inniskeen has ensured that they will finish top of the RFL Division Three, while Aughnamullen are expected to qualify for the semi-finals after they were handed the points by bottom club Rockcorry.
Clones and Fergal O’Hanlons got walkovers from Toome and Killanny respectively in Division Four.
