  3. Antrim hurling woepublished at 15:43 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Antrim exit from the Leinster Hurling Championship after a 2-18 to 1-11 defeat by Carlow at Dr Cullen Park. Their only remaining hurling action this summer will be the Ulster final and it's the Christy Ring Cup for them next summer. Ouch.

    "Maybe Cavan just lacked that wee bit of experience to get over the line. The game was there for them to win but fair play to Monaghan, they showed great character in the second half after not playing particularly well for much of the match."

  5. Malachy O'Rourke's viewpublished at 15:38 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    "In the second half, we just upped our game and that was the difference more than anything else. We were able to get Conor McManus on the ball a bit more.

    "There was a time early in the second half when the game could have got away from us if our boys hadn't held their heads."

  6. Celebrationspublished at 15:36 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Monaghan are applauded by their delighted, and no doubt relieved, supporters. They now look forward to a semi-final against Fermanagh or Antrim on 21 June.

    Colin Walshe's left foot sends over a nerve-settling score and Monaghan lead by two with less than a minute to go.

    Martin Dunne lands a free for Cavan but seconds later the final whistle sounds and Monaghan go through - but only just.

    Raymond Galligan started in goal for Cavan instead of Conor Gilsenan

    Cavan's young keeper Raymond Galligan, who plays as a forward for his club, has a go from distance but the free goes wide.

    The number 16 has another crack with a 45 - but it is wide again.

    We are into added time.

    Cavan's number 14 makes it 14 points each. Martin Dunne landing over a fine score.

    But Monaghan maestro Conor McManus quickly replies with a brilliant score.

    That Hughes free puts Monaghan ahead for the first time since the 23rd minute.

    On that occasion they stayed in front for only two minutes - can they hold on this time?

    Niall: Why have Cabhan stopped releasing the ball into Argue...running into walls and negating the tactic that paid dividends.

    Henky7: @bbcchampionship Who's going to win Ulster this year boys? With the Red Hands out of the way can Armagh do it this year Oisin?

  12. Monaghan momentumpublished at 15:22 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Monaghan move into the lead thanks to a Kieran Hughes free. The last five scores have gone to the Farney county. Are Cavan letting their big opportunity slip?

    "Cavan have panicked a bit but fair play to Monaghan for battling back. Cavan have lost their shape."

  14. All levelpublished at 15:19 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Monaghan equalise through a Dessie Mone free after Cavan's free-taker Martin Reilly receives a black card for hauling down an opponent.

  15. Postpublished at 15:18 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    It is a one-point game now as veteran replacement Dick Clerkin registers from play. Cavan haven't scored for 10 minutes or so.

    Dessie Mone is still remonstrating with the umpire after not being given a penalty. He felt he was impeded as he tried to kick the ball.

  17. Antrim Hurlers updatepublished at 15:13 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Antrim are heading out of the Leinster Hurling Championship and into next season's Christy Ring Cup as Carlow move 1-15 to 1-6 at Dr Cullen Park. Ciaran Johnston has also been sent off the Saffrons. Dark days for Antrim hurling.

  18. Postpublished at 15:13 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Conor McManus lands a free for Monaghan who felt they might have had a penalty just before that when Dessie Mone went down as Thomas Corr challenged. Would have been a harsh award.

    Darren Hughes then charges forward to fire over another Monaghan point - deficit down to two now.

  19. Cavan on top?published at 15:10 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Ciaran Brady is on target with a fine score from play and then Michael Argue's shot on the turn opens a four-point advantage for Cavan. Are Monaghan's hopes of a third successive Ulster final fading?

  20. Cavan 0-11 0-9 Monaghanpublished at 15:03 British Summer Time 24 May 2015

    Conor McManus does the business again with a free from the left - Monaghan really needed that!
