LAST SEASON’S ALL-Ireland club finalists St Brigid’s were knocked out of the Roscommon senior football championship today at the quarter-final stage by Pádraig Pearses.
Clinging to an advantage 0-10 to 0-9 in injury-time, St Brigid’s were pegged back by a brilliant point from Declan Kenny for Pádraig Pearses that forced extra-time.
In the additional period the reigning county and provincial champions were held off as Pádraig Pearses impressed in claiming victory by 0-15 to 0-13.
Pádraig Pearses last lifted the Roscommon senior football title in 2021, winning Connacht honours in the same campaign.
