Longford Ladies suffered their first competitive defeat this year as they lost out to Offaly by the minimum of margins in the Leinster Intermediate Championship clash at O’Connor Park in Tullamore on Sunday.
Offaly . . . 1-11 Longford . . . 1-10
But because of their fine eights point win over Louth in their opening group fixture Longford have qualified for the Leinster semi-final against Meath or Wexford.
Offaly were full value for their win and while Longford had chances in stoppage time to snatch a draw they failed to find the target as they fell to a disappointing defeat.
