London 0-6 Longford 1-18
Jack Sheedy's rapidly improving Longford outfit were far too classy for London at Ruislip as they maintained their impressive unbeaten Allianz Football League Division Four start.
Prompted by midfielders Kevin Diffley and Barry Gilleran, Longford controlled the opening period and build up a 0-8 to 0-2 advantage at the break.
It was a similar story of Longford supremacy after the restart as centre forward Paul McKeon netted a crisp 48th-minute goal.
London battled until the end, but promotion chasing Longford continued to dominate cruising to a victory that was as convincing as the scoreline suggests.
