Leinster SHC: Wexford 0-22 Dublin 2-21 

Pressure mounting for Wexford. Another year without a run in the All-Ireland series looks a lot more likely than it did before Saturday’s slip. The Kilkenny defeat may have felt like a missed opportunity, but this one at Chadwicks Wexford Park was a gift from the Model County, wrapped, ribboned and hand delivered to the Dubs.
