The afternoon started in positive fashion for Ulster teams with Antrim overcoming Clare at Corrigan Park.

But it was followed by heartbreak for Ballinderry in the All-Ireland Intermediate Club decider and Down losing out in their Division Two opener.

That's all from us for now - thanks for your company.

It's all over in Dr Hyde Park.

A strong second half performance from Roscommon seals a seven point victory for Davy Burke's side.

Not the start to their Division Two campaign Down would have wanted.

Roscommon take the lead as Ciarain Murtagh scores into an empty net.

Down goalkeeper John O'Hare was a long way from home and despite his best efforts couldn't get back in time.

Roscommon have managed to fight their way back into this game.

However, they now find themselves down to 14 men as Daire Cregg receives a black card.

Mikie Loftus lifts the cup. You have to feel sorry for Ballinderry but there was something appropriate about Conor Loftus being the man who scored that last-kick penalty after all he has gone through over the past couple of weeks. You have to salute his fortitude.

Back underway at Dr Hyde Park.

Down looking very impressive on the attack. Points from Oisin Savage and Pat Havern further extend their lead.

The full-time whistle is blown. What an incredible finish and what composure from Conor Loftus after all he has gone through in the last weeks after the sudden and tragic death of his fiancee Roisin Cryan. Loftus has run straight into the dressing-room area. Goodness knows what is going through that man's mind.

Loftus scores the penalty. That has to be it.

Crossmolina have earned a penalty. It must be the last kick. Surely they will have to kick the ball over the bar. What a call to have to make. What incredible drama. Kevin Mulhern is taking the kick. No he's not. It's Conor Loftus.

We're in the final minute of injury-time and Ballinderry have won back possession. The Shamrocks are so close.

Crossmolina's Niall Goggins seemed certain to burst the net as he was presented with a glorious goal chance but he has blasted the ball over from six yards out. It cuts Ballinderry's lead to the minimum. Five minutes of added time is being played.

The game has completely turned in Ballinderry's favour in the last six or seven minutes as substitute Daniel McKinless doubles their advantage with just over a minute of normal time left.

I did say that Ballinderry appear to have the momentum and that is continuing as Conor O'Neill puts the them ahead with under three minutes of normal time left.

Ballinderry now look to have the momentum as veteran Ryan Bell has just lofted over a towering equalising from 35 minutes. There are four minutes of normal time remaining but there is bound to be several minutes of added time.

A James Maheady point had Crossmolina looking very good as they moved 0-11 to 0-8 ahead in the 52nd minute but points from Ruairi Forbes and Daniel McKinless have cut the margin to the minimum with seven minutes of normal time remaining.

An impressive opening half from Down in their first Division Two game.

The visitors hold a five point lead at the break.

The referee blows his whistle and it's all over in Belfast.

A tough battle in very wet and windy conditions but it's Antrim who secure the win.
