Sligo and Antrim break goalless scoring record

It's been confirmed that Sligo and Antrim men's gaelic footballers broke a remarkable scoring on Sunday.

The Tailteann Cup group game between the counties was the highest-scoring goalless senior football championship game in history.

The previous record was set by Tyrone and Westmeath in the 2023 Sam Maguire Cup (0-18 points each).

The 0-20 to 0-20 draw at Kingspan Breffni ensured Sligo secured top spot in Group 2.

While both counties finished the group on five points, Sligo’s superior points difference sees them go directly into the quarter-finals – with the Saffron County facing a home prelim last eight match against London next weekend.
