Crafty Cats strike late to book final place

Kilkenny 2-13

Substitute Eoin Reid’s 43rd minute goal revived their challenge after Galway had made the running all through the first half and, after midfielder Cathal Dervan was off target with two frees, Kilkenny grabbed the lead through Richie Power.

Just like their seniors, they finished the stronger, with a score from Willie O’Dwyer ensuring they go through to the final against Tipperary.
