NFL Division Two B/ Cavan 1-14 Tipperary 0-12: Cavan continued their impressive league form when they travelled away to Tipperary in Ardfinnan yesterday and claimed the spoils.

Cavan led by 1-10 to 0-5 at the interval - their goal coming in the fourth minute from centre forward Mark McKeever - having dominated the first half when playing with the breeze.
