Leinster MFC quarter-finals

THERE WERE WINS for Dublin, Kildare, Westmeath and Meath in this afternoon’s Leinster Minor Football Championship quarter-finals.

Dublin led Wexford by just two points at the halfway point but took control after the break and won out comfortably in the end. They will face Kildare in the last four after the Lilywhites recorded victory over Offaly.

Wicklow played much of the second half with 14 men against Westmeath, after Niall Donnelly was shown a red card, and went down 2-13 to 0-10 in Mullingar.

Goals from Daire Rowe and Joe Wallace, meanwhile, earned Meath a win over Laois in Portlaoise.
