A two-pointer from Darragh Beirne brings Mayo level six minutes in.

Michael Bannigan opens the scoring

Despite an improved performance against Dublin, Monaghan fell to a third successive defeat in Division One and have their work cut out to stay afloat in the top tier.

That's the half and Antrim hold a slender lead.

It's been a well-contested game so far but not a lot of free-flowing hurling, perhaps a result of the heavy conditions.

Still, games between these two are always close so the trend has continued.

Keelan Molloy with a ridiculous Antrim score, but Carlow eat into the lead with frees fro Kavanagh and Kevin McDonald, while John Michael Nolan fires over from play.

Good from Antrim again as Niall O'Connor finishes a move after Elliott had nailed a free, while Marty Kavanagh hits back from a 65.

A sense this game is still to fully come to life but Antrim will be relatively happy with how they've performed so far.

Keelan Molloy slings over before Carlow almost come back with a goal when Donagh Murphy is through but shoots too high. Still, the first score in 16 minutes for the Barrowsiders.

Conor Johnston with a trademark score and Antrim edge ahead and Conal Cunning adds another. The Saffrons into more of a flow now.

Keelan Molloy thunders into Carlow's Niall Bolger and it's a little high, earning a yellow card for the Antrim man.

Seaan Elliott with his third of the day levels but then drops one short - an issue for Antrim so far in the league.

Antrim look a little more threatening and Conal Cunning lands a score, but another opportunity is called back with Keelan Molloy penalised for a throw.

It's what we expected so far. You have to be efficient with your opportunities and Antrim have been a little bit more efficient. There are little signs they can open Carlow up a little bit.

Jack Treacy and Chris Nolan with points for Carlow while Antrim seem to carve out a goal opportunity with Conor Johnston and James McNaughton combining, but perhaps they go one pass too many and the chance goes.

Marty Kavanagh points frees either side of one for Antrim's Seaan Elliott and all level in what has been a fairly scrappy start to the game.

Seaan Elliott with Antrim's opening score while at the other end, Cormac McFadden makes a big stop from Chris Nolan.

The ball is in at Corrigan Park for a vital game between Antrim and Carlow.

You have to see a bit of intent from Antrim from the off.

Antrim beat 2025 All-Ireland finalists Cork 2-10 by 1-11 in Division 1A after second-half goals from Nicole McAtamney and Aimee Ferris at MTU Cork.

The result is Antrim's first victory this campaign as Cork's wait for their first win in Division 1A this season continues.

The visitors made a bright start to the game and took an early 0-6 to 0-1 lead after two frees from McAtamney, Eobha McAllister and Janey McIntosh with Hayley Ryan registering Cork's only early free.

The home side responded with scores from Orlaith Cremin and Emma Murphy which tightened the game before two more frees from McAtamney gave Antrim a 0-8 to 0-5 lead at the break.

After the restart, McAtamney and Orlaith Cahalane traded goals as Cork took the lead for the first time in the 48th minute.

However, Ferris scored for Antrim three minutes later and they pulled further ahead thanks to frees from McAtamney and McAllister.

Despite points Cahalane and Millie Condon late in the game, Cork couldn't complete a dramatic comeback before the final whistle.

Today's game at Corrigan Park is the last of the Division 1B games this weekend.

On Saturday, a seven-goal thriller at Croke Park ended level as 13-man Dublin salvaged a 4-19 to 3-22 draw in a feisty affair which leaves both sides still firmly in the hunt for promotion.

In Newbridge, Kildare gave Clare a stern test, but the Banner found the answers for a 0-27 to 3-14 win which maintains their perfect start to the campaign.
