Armagh secured their second win of the NFL Division 2 campaign courtesy of Ryan Henderson's late, late winner over Laois in O'Moore Park last night.

Armagh 0-13
Laois 0-12

Henderson scored with the last kick of the game to leave the home side shattered after they had recovered from a 0-5 to 0-9 half-time deficit. Sean Dempsey's side bossed the second half, but a tally of 11 wides to their opponents' five proved costly in the end.

Steven McDonnell kicked six points in the opening half, but it wasn't until after the sending off of substitute Vincent Martin in the 26th minute that they really cut loose.

Laois, who also had Darren Strong sent off in the final quarter, rallied in the second half with scores from MJ Tierney and Donie Kingston and the returning Cahir Healy, but were denied a share of the spoils at the death.
