London out fox young Leitirm

London lifted the FBD League plate with an eight point victory over an experimental Leitrim side.

The Leitrim team was more akin toward their U23 side who made a small comeback in the later stages of the game.

London led 1-7 to four points at half-time. Adam Gethins, Oisin McLoughlin, Tom Plunkett and Ben Guckian with Leitrim’s first-half points.
