Fermanagh 2-6
Roscommon 0-11

James Sherry broke Roscommon hearts last night on the eve of Valentine's Day when his injury-time goal saw Fermanagh snatch victory from the jaws of defeat at Brewster Park, Enniskillen.

In an even affair, Roscommon, who were out to make up for last Sunday's heavy home defeat to Cavan, took an early two-point advantage but when Fermanagh got their act together the sides were level on 0-4 each at half-time.

Six minutes into the restart and the hosts took a 1-5 to 0-4 lead when full-forward Ryan Carson blasted the rebound of his initial shot which hit the crossbar to the Roscommon net and Malachy O'Rourke's team looked to be well on their way towards collecting the points.

However, the determined Rossies fought back with ace attacker Donal Shine kicking six second-half points, but it wouldn't be enough for the visitors in the end as their opponents battled to the end and Sherry's strike in the added minutes earned them a one-point victory. Tweet
