Well heroes topple Adare to hit historic high

Patrickswell 1-13 Adare 0-14

Adare, whose ambition was to join the select few to have recorded a hat-trick of titles, were within touching distance of achieving their target after they overturned a six-point deficit to lead 0-10 to 0-9 entering the final minutes.

After an indifferent start in which they surrendered five points inside seven minutes, Mark Foley had the champions ticking over nicely and, with Conor Fitzgerald doing the business up front, the winning post was within sight.
