Antrim GAA will review a video of Saturday's one-point loss to Meath in the Christy Ring final before deciding whether or not to appeal the result after conflicting reports about the final score. 

The Royals lifted the trophy, and claimed a place in next season’s Liam MacCarthy competition, with a one-point win, 2-18 to 1-20.

It was a sensational comeback from the Royal County as they came from behind with a late flurry of scores against pre-match favourites Antrim. 

However, while the Croke Park scoreboard and the TG4 graphic had Meath as winners, many reporters at the game had it down as a draw in their notes.

The scorers list for Meath recorded only 23 points in their 24 to 23-point win. 

The confusion appears to have arisen from an incident in the 63rd minute.

Ahead 1-19 to 1-15, Antrim scored a point but the TG4 graphic moved the Meath score to 1-16 and left the Saffrons at 1-19.

Referee John O’Brien from Tipperary later told TG4 that his report confirms the result in Meath's favour. 

Antrim GAA have told RTÉ Sport that they will review a video of the game before deciding on whether to appeal or not.
