Na Dúnaibh will defend their All-Ireland Junior crown at the Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta finals in Kerry tomorrow.

Na Dúnaibh 2-9 Cill Chomáin 2-5

Na Dúnaibh, who won the 2018 title at home, booked a spot in tomorrow’s final thanks to goals from Eric Roberts and Keelin McGroddy either end of half-time.

Roberts fired home in first-half stoppage time to give Na Dúnaibh a 1-6 to 1-1 lead at half-time.

Lorcan Connor, who was on fire in a landslide 6-17 to 0-7 quarter-final win over An Seanphobal yesterday scored three first-half points in this semi-final.

Four minutes into the new half, McGroddy riffled to the net to put Na Dúnaibh – who had Kevin Doherty sent off in the second half – firmly in the lead.

Robers, Connor and McGroddy added points as Na Dúnaibh advanced.

Scorers – Na Dúnaibh: Keelin McGroddy 1-3, Eric Roberts 1-2, Lorcan Connor 0-4
