After last night quarter final win over Wexford, Meath were drawn to play unbeaten Kildare in next week's Leinster Under 20 Football Championship semi final.
Wexford led the Leinster holders 0-8 to 0-7 at the break. By the 47 minute Wexford still held that one point advantage thanks to a Rory Gilbert goal but from there on the home side dominated. Two pointers from John Harkin (2) and Michael McIvor and a brace from Ben Corkery opened up a seven point lead before the visitors stuck for a late goal from Jason Sheridan.
Meath scorers: John Harkin 0-6, Rian Stafford 0-4, Jamie Murphy 0-3, Ben Corkery 0-3, Michael McIvor 0-2, Tadgh Martyn and Zach Thornton 0-1 each.
