Larkin goal seals victory for Cats
When Wexford, who led by two points at half-time, increased their lead within minutes of the restart through a Stephen Nolan free, the champions looked in real trouble. But it was the accuracy of Larkin that eventually saw them through, but not without a real battle.
Wexford were battling for every ball and with Nolan punishing every indiscretion in the visitors’ defence they led 0-14 to 1-10 at the end of the third quarter. But it was Larkin’s goal, finishing a rebound after his 21m free had been saved, that changed the course of the game.
