Footage emerges of attack on match official

Video footage has emerged of a match official being knocked to the ground after a Leinster club football match yesterday.

Referee Barry Tiernan was confronted in the aftermath of Summerhill's 1-9 to 1-7 win over Tullamore at O'Connor Park.

The Dublin official originally awarded Tullamore a penalty before reversing the decision following consultation with his umpires.
