No contest as Banner batter woeful Wexford

THOSE who felt that Clare couldn’t possibly repeat their 11-point win over Wexford in last year’s All-Ireland quarter-final were proved correct in Croke Park yesterday — Clare won by 12, and won pulling up.

Clare 1-27 Wexford 1-15 Diarmuid O’Flynn

The first game of the day’s quarter-final double-header, the third quarter-final of the weekend, proved a major disappointment for an attendance of nearly 46,000, and was never a contest.

From the start, it was Clare in control, 1-7 to 0-1 ahead after 18 minutes, 1-13 to 0-7 at the break, 1-18 to 0-8 ten minutes into the second half, extended to a 14-point lead with five minutes remaining; from the start it was over for Wexford.
