A round-up of the weekend's club football action, after which the championships in Dublin, Kerry, Mayo and Tyrone all have just four teams remaining.

Dublin

Kilmacud Crokes defeated St Vincent's in a heavyweight battle on Saturday, as the Stillorgan side found the net four times in a 4-15 to 1-12 win. This came after St Jude's beat Skerries Harps.

A late equaliser from All-Star midfielder Brian Fenton brought Raheny's clash with Ballyboden St Enda's to extra-time, but the reigning champions made it through, 2-16 to 0-16.

Ballymun Kickhams staged a second-half comeback to overcome Na Fianna in the last quarter-final. The Glasnevin side led 1-10 to 0-8 at the halfway point, but the star-studded Ballymun team reeled them in and secured a 1-18 to 2-13 victory.
