Davy Burke declares ‘winning on the road is massive’ as Roscommon dig out crucial victory over Louth in Division 2

DAVY BURKE was delighted to be leaving Louth with two points after his Roscommon side withstood a Wee County fightback.

“Digging it out — I’m delighted we didn’t win by seven or eight points or whatever it was with five minutes to go. Because we will get far more out of that, far more character-building out of that.

“With two-pointers and three-pointers there is no switching off.

“Louth took Armagh to the 74th minute in the first round of the league last year. Winning on the road in the league builds huge confidence with a very young squad.

“Look at Pearse Frost, Colm Neary. We have more defenders now.”

Roscommon looked to be coasting when midfielder Keith Doyle finished off a move to the net to put them six points clear with eight minutes remaining.

Substitute Ben O’Carroll and in-form attacker Ciaráin Murtagh pushed it out to eight before Louth made a late surge.

On their return to Drogheda after five years, debutant Val Leddy gave the home crowd something to cheers with a goal after Ciarán Downey hit a two-pointer.

But Louth ran out of time and boss Ger Brennan rued their slow start and accuracy, especially in the first half, after which Roscommon led 0-10 to 0-5.

The ex-Dublin ace said: “When you look at the shot-to-score ratio, I think we were 37 per cent and Roscommon 67 per cent. That tells its own story.”

ROSCOMMON: C Carroll; N Higgins, P Frost, C Neary; B Stack, S Cunnane 0-1m, J McManus; E Nolan, K Doyle 1-0; S Killoran, C Murtagh 0-4, E Smith 0-1; D Murtagh 0-6, 1f, 1tpf, D Smith 0-2, D Cregg 0-1f.

‘I just want to play football’ – Marcus Rashford in 78-word statement as Man Utd ace completes Aston Villa loan transfer

MARCUS RASHFORD has released a 78-word statement having signed for Aston Villa.

TRANSFER NEWS LIVE: STAY UP TO DATE WITH ALL THE LATEST MOVES FROM THE JANUARY WINDOW

Rashford, 27, has not played a minute of football since he was subbed off against Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League.

Red Devils boss Ruben Amorim had been critical of Rashford which has lead to his exit.

Villa will be paying 75 per cent of his wages and will have the option to make his loan permanent in the summer for £40million.

Rashford released a statement on social media after he was announced as a Villa player.

He only posted 78 words but insisted he West Midlands club was the “easy decision” and that he just “wants to play”.

He wrote: “I would like to thank Manchester United and Aston Villa for making this loan deal happen.

“I was lucky to have a few clubs approach me but Aston Villa was an easy decision.

“I really admire the way that Aston Villa have been playing this season, and the managers’ ambitions.

“I just want to play football and am excited to get started.

“I wish everyone at Manchester United all the best for the rest of the season.”

Rashford's Aston Villa loan terms: £325,000 weekly wages, Man Utd to cover 25%, £40m buy option. Illustration of three reasons Marcus Rashford chose Aston Villa: lack of interest from top European clubs, Champions League football, and a £325,000-a-week wage.

Manchester United will need Rashford’s and all the other luck they can get after another defeat on the weekend.

The club suffered their SEVENTH home league loss of the season at the hands of Crystal Palace.

Rashford, however, will be hoping to break into Unai Emery‘s team as quickly as possible and get himself back on the pitch.

He will be keen to help fire the Villans back into contention for the top six as well as advance in the Champions League.

Brian Duignan shoots lucky 0-13 as Offaly come from behind to beat Laois in Division 1B hurling league clash

BRIAN DUIGNAN and Dan Ravenhill led the charge as Offaly blew Laois away in the second half at O’Moore Park.

Duignan landed 13 points, ten from frees, while Ravenhill cut loose after the break with four exquisite points from play.

Johnny Kelly’s side trailed by 0-11 to 0-9 at half-time, their promotion hopes looking precarious after last week’s below-par performance in their opening-round draw with Carlow.

But Offaly’s fitness came to the fore in the second period as they ran Laois ragged in the repeat of last year’s Joe McDonagh Cup final.

Faithful boss Kelly said: “It was a good second half and the reality is we had a really good first half as well, but we didn’t put the scores on the board when we had the opportunities.”

Offaly were wasteful in that opening period, which allowed Laois to edge ahead, with Aaron Dunphy and the returning Charles ‘Cha’ Dwyer impressing for the hosts.

The deceptively strong and chilling breeze was a factor but the second half was a different story as Ravenhill, Oisín Kelly and Duignan switched to rampage mode to pull away on the scoreboard.

Kelly added: “We were quite compact at the back and it was all about building the ball through the middle and putting in the right delivery.

“It was like a game of two halves — that’s a cliche, I know, but it really was. We had 23 shots with nine scores in the first half.”

David Nally put the finishing touches on a comfortable Faithful victory when he rattled the net with his first touch after his 68th-minute introduction.

Laois keeper Enda Rowland — making his 100th appearance for the O’Moore County — fired home a consolation goal from a penalty with the last puck of the game.

OFFALY: M Troy; P Cantwell, C Burke, J Mahon; R Ravenhill, D Shirley 0-1, C Spain 0-1; C King, J Sampson; K Sampson, D Bourke 0-1, D Ravenhill 0-5; C Mitchell 0-1, O Kelly 0-2, B Duignan 0-13, 10f. Subs: D Nally 1-0 for Duignan 67 mins; D King for Kelly 70; DJ McLoughlin for Spain 70; J Clancy for Mitchell 70.

LAOIS: E Rowland 1-0 pen: P Dunne, L Cleere, D Hartnett; T Cuddy, P Delaney, F C-Fennell; A Corby 0-1, J Walshe 0-2; D Dooley 0-2, C Dwyer 0-2, A Dunphy 0-7, 5f, 1 65; J Quinlan, T Keyes, M Phelan.

Чим покрити ґрунт, на якому росте суниця, для покращення смаку ягід

  1 Кисла суниця нікому не подобається. Іноді ягода є взагалі несмачною. Отримати задоволення від вживання такої їжі навряд чи вдасться. А додавати цукор хочуть не всі гурмани. Низька якість урожаю пов’язана зазвичай з помилками, яких припустився дачник. Поширені помилки – це невчасне підживлення рослини і відмова від застосування засобів проти недуг та шкідників.
