The Leinster U20 hurling final between Dublin and Galway has been postponed due to Covid-19 restrictions.

The teams were set to face off in Portlaoise on Sunday 3 January but, like this week's Leinster minor fixtures, the game will now take place at a later date due to the country's return to Level 5, under which only senior inter-county games are allowed.

Cork beat Tipperary in the Munster final on 23 December and were due to face the Leinster champions in the All-Ireland decider on 9/10 January.

Both of this week's Ulster MFC semi-finals (Monaghan v Fermanagh and Derry v Tyrone) have also been called off but the Connacht and Munster championships have been completed, with Roscommon and Kerry winning out respectively.
