Louth are out of the Leinster Football Championship.

The defending champions have been dumped out by Dublin in Saturday's semi-final.

The Dubs are into the provincial decider after a 20-point to 10 victory over the Wee County.

Rory Beggan's last-minute two-pointer secured a dramatic Ulster football semi-final win for Monaghan.

His side was down by 10 points to Derry at halftime before dragging the game to extra time.

Despite late controversy, a last-gasp sideline from Jack McCarron left it level at full-time.

Goalkeeper Beggan slotted a free in extra-time to leave it Monaghan 1-30 Derry 3-23 in Armagh and send his team to the Ulster final.
