    Monaghan 0-14 Galway 3-12

    A massive win for Galway in Clones. A result that sees them move out of the relegation places.

    For Monaghan, not even the late return of Conor McManus could inspire one of those famous Farney fightbacks that we have all have become accustomed to.

    Monaghan never recovered from the concession of those three first-half goals, and with a solid Galway defence superbly managed by Sean Kelly and Dylan McHugh, the Tribesmen held on for a comfortable seven-point win.

  3. Galway in controlpublished at 16:47 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Monaghan 0-13 Galway 3-12

    Former All-Star Dean Kelly races forward to add to Galway's tally. Just a few minutes remaining in Clones with Galway more than able to handle anything the home side throw at them.

  4. Galway comfortablepublished at 16:40 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Monaghan 0-11 Galway 3-10

    A stray pass out of the Monaghan defence is picked up by Rory Cunningham, and the Galway attacker strides forward unopposed to extend Galway's lead to eight.

    With less than 10 minutes to play, it's already looking like the victory points are heading way out west.

  5. Full-timepublished at 16:35 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Fermanagh 0-11 Armagh 0-15

    It's all over at Brewster Park, where Armagh have continued their unbeaten run and remain top of Division Two alongside Donegal.

    Blaine Hughes and late substitute Callum Jones closed out the game's scoring.

    Fermanagh held their own for most of the game, but two purple patches for Armagh - one in either half - where they scored four points in a row on each occasion, proved to be the difference.

  6. McManus back for Monaghanpublished at 16:31 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Monaghan 0-9 Galway 3-6

    Galway introduce Kieran Molloy but at the same time Monaghan spring Conor McManus from their bench. His entrance generates the loudest cheer of the day.

    While all that was going on Cillian O'Currain points a Galway free and the gap is back to six.

    Fermanagh 0-10 Armagh 0-14

  8. Postpublished at 16:26 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Fermanagh 0-10 Armagh 0-14

    Fermanagh's defence was punished for switching off, as Barry McCambridge claimed a mark and the home team stopped in their tracks. Stefan Campbell was alert though, and he was picked out by McCambridge, before sending the ball over the bar.

    There are five minutes of normal time to go in Brewster Park.

    Oisin O'Neill and Ross McQuillan have replaced Cian McConville and Paddy Burns for Armagh.

  10. Fermanagh hanging in therepublished at 16:23 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Fermanagh 0-10 Armagh 0-13

    With under 10 minutes to go, it feels as though Armagh should be out of sight, but following a converted Sean Cassidy free and a Garvan Jones mark, Fermanagh have brought it back to a one-score game.

    Barry McCambridge has come on for Joe McElroy on the Armagh team.

  11. Huge chance goes abegging for Armaghpublished at 16:18 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Fermanagh 0-8 Armagh 0-13

    Fermanagh have introduced John Rehill in place of Ultan Kelm, whilst Jason Duffy has entered the field of play for Armagh. He's in for Oisin Conaty.

    Rehill's first action was almost disastrous, as he was dispossessed under no pressure in midfield. Fermanagh's goalkeeper Ross Bogue was up the field and Armagh broke on the counter.

    Paddy Burns carried the ball forward 50 metres with Bogue racing back to his goal, but the corner-back couldn't convert into an open net from around 21 metres out.

  12. Positive start for Monaghanpublished at 16:17 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Monaghan 0-8 Galway 3-4

    As Andrew Woods returns from the sin-bin early in the second half, Michael Bannigan knocks over a free for Monaghan, thus cutting Galway's lead to five points.

  13. Postpublished at 16:15 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Fermanagh 0-8 Armagh 0-13

    Garvan Jones scored for the hosts, but Stefan Campbell had an immediate reply for Armagh.

    For Fermanagh, Sean Cassidy has replaced Tiarnan Bogue. They have 15 minutes left to salvage something from a game which seems to be slipping away.

  14. Armagh go five points clearpublished at 16:11 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Fermanagh 0-7 Armagh 0-12

    Armagh may be without Rian O'Neill, but they still boast some outstanding forwards, including Conor Turbitt and Andrew Murnin - who have both scored to increase the gap to five points.

    That's four points on the bounce now for Armagh, who may just be starting to pull away from their opponents.

    Fermanagh 0-7 Armagh 0-10

    Two points in quick succession has pushed out Armagh's lead. The first was from a Conor Turbitt free, before Rory Grugan split the posts with an excellent curled effort.

    Armagh's Jarly Og Burns is in for Ben Crealey, whilst Fermanagh's Ronan McCaffrey is in for James McMahon.

    Fermanagh 0-7 Armagh 0-8

    Just the one score to report on in the opening minutes of the second half. An Ultan Kelm free has Fermanagh back to within a point.

  17. Galway in the driving seatpublished at 16:02 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March

    Monaghan 0-7 Galway 3-4

    It's not looking good for Monaghan at the break.

    Three first-half goals for Galway through Cathal Sweeney, Rory Cunningham and John Maher have put the Tribesmen in control at the break.

    Monaghan responded well to falling six points behind but Maher's major on the stroke of half-time could prove to be a blow that the Farney may not recover from.

    The question on every Monaghan fan now is when will we see the introduction of Conor McManus.

    And what a goal!

    Robert Finnerty's free comes back off a Monaghan post and the ball falls straight into the arms of Ruairí Cunningham who lashes an unstoppable shot into the roof of the Monaghan net.

    Cunningham then quickly adds a point as Galway take a stranglehold on the tie as Monaghan lose Andrew Woods for 10 minutes because of a black card.
