Vins win battle against Clontarf as Dublin SFC quarter-finalists take shape

Ballymun, Skerries, St Jude’s and Na Fianna all clinch places in the last eight.

St Vincent’s 2-16 Clontarf 0-11

ST VINCENT’S BOOKED their place in the Dublin SFC quarter-finals with a resounding 11-point win over Clontarf in Parnell Park this evening.

Brian Mullins’s Vins only needed to avoid defeat to progress to the knockout rounds alongside Group 3 winners Ballyboden St Enda’s.
