Well worth setting the alarm clock for that one. A serious performance from the @Offaly_GAA u20’s. Really good ball carriers at the end to see the game out. Hon Offaly ⚪️

Lord knows I hate to see Dublin lose at any level but it would've been a travesty had Offaly not held on for their deserved win. Like Roscommon last night, they were so well prepared and made a mockery of their underdog status. Fair whacks to them.
