The Downs and St Loman's played two enthralling contests in the last week.

After two 60 minute contests, 20 minutes of extra-time, and a dramatic penalty shootout, St Loman's have retained their senior football title in Westmeath.

The Downs and Loman's were locked together on 1-10 a piece at the end of normal time in their county final replay in Cusack Park on Saturday.

Extra-time saw both clubs score an additional five points each to leave the scores at 1-15 to 2-12.

In the penalty shootout that followed, The Downs missed all of their first three penalties, with the defending champions retaining their title after John Heslin converted his spot kick to make it 3-0.
