Football teams from across west Belfast have come together to stamp out sectarianism.

It follows an incident on the Stewartstown's Road recently.

A Protestant teenager suffered a broken jaw following a gang attack.

The 18-year-old man was targeted last month and required surgery.

The tournament took place last night and Lenadoon FC took away the cup.

People before Profit's Gerry Carroll said:

"We want people to stand together and we want to end sectarianism which has divided people for too long in our society

"Teams from across the community are coming together to stand together against these kinds of attacks. They have no place in our communities." the West Belfast representative added.
