Sligo minors lose to Galway

Sligo minor gaelic footballers lost their opening game of this year's Connacht minor football championship on Friday evening as they lost out to last year's All-Ireland champions Galway at Markievicz Park on a final scoreline of 1-13 to 1-9.

Sligo actually led by a point at half-time (1-4 to 0-6) but Galway improved in the second-half to run out four point winners.

In the evening's other game, defending Connacht champions Mayo beat Roscommon by 2-17 to 0-11.

Leitrim minors make their championship entrance next Friday evening against David O'Neill's Sligo in Carrick-on-Shannon.
