Dublin survive Kildare fright to win

JOHN O’LEARY’S Dublin survived a fright from Kildare to chalk up their second TG4 Ladies Leinster Championship victory at Sarsfields yesterday, 5-14 to 3-11.

The Lilywhites entered the game as underdogs, but took the game to the reigning champions and only trailed by a point at the break with Dublin marginally ahead, 3-5 to 2-7.

Dublin pulled away on the resumption though - scoring 2-1 in the first seven minutes of the restart to remain on course to reclaim their provincial crown.
