Ulster Under-21 action continues

The action continues in the Cadbury's Ulster U21 Championship on Wednesday as Down face Antrim at Newry and Tyrone tackle Cavan at Omagh (both 2000 GMT).

Tyrone will be without Cathal McCarron because of an arm injury.

Antrim's team for their clash with Down in Newry includes senior Saffron county panelists CJ McGourty, Justin Crozier, Gerard Crossey and Tomas McCann.

Tyrone will be strong favourites in Omagh but the Newry clash has the makings of a tight contest.

The remaining two quarter-finals will take place on Saturday (1530) with Derry facing Fermanagh at Celtic Park and Donegal tackling Armagh at Ballybofey.

Donegal defeated Monaghan 0-15 to 1-6 in Monday's preliminary round football clash at Ballybay.

After trailing 0-5 to 0-3 at half-time, Monaghan's prospects were dealt a blow when Seamus Markey was sent off a minute after the restart.

Owen Duffy's goal then put Monaghan ahead but Donegal used their extra man to good effect during the remainder of the game.

Gary McFadden top-scored for Donegal with six points.
