Monaghan 1-10 - 1-6 FermanaghMonaghan squeezed through to the second round of the All-Ireland SFC Qualifier series with a nervy four-point win over a dogged Fermanagh side at Clones. Daniel Teague responded as Fermanagh went back on the attack, but they failed to score in the second quarter, forced back deep into their own half by a Monaghan side growing in confidence. But Fermanagh made another incisive attack through the lightning-fast Kelm, who slipped the ball to Conall Jones in front of goal. And in a bad-tempered finish to the game, Fermanagh had Paul McCusker and James McMahon sent off, finishing with 12 men. Monaghan: R Beggan (0-1, f); K Duffy (0-1), V Corey (0-1), R Wylie; K O’Connell, C Boyle, D Ward; N Kearns, K Hughes (0-2); R McAnespie (0-1), D Malone, S Carey; C McCarthy (0-1), F Kelly, C McManus (0-2, 1f).
