Bray too powerful for Kerry in First Division playoff semi but another harsh card a contributor. UCD meet Bray Sunday for right to face (likely) Drogheda for spot in next year’s Premier.

Euro U21 playoff draw is Friday. Open draw will see Ireland paired with one of Greece, Finland, Denmark, Iceland, Turkey, Netherlands or Czechia. Israel, who beat Ireland in their last playoff in 2022, marginally missed out on runners-up this time. Pity.
