Slaneyside steel brings final glory
The Model County defence was what kept them in contention throughout a determined second-half performance blighted only by some terrible wides. And, when Lyng’s score put them a point clear, they needed to be very solid at the back to hold out for victory.
It was another disappointing outcome for Waterford following the heartbreak of their seniors’ unexpected defeat two weeks ago, but it came as a welcome bonus for Wexford whose loyal followers had even less to cheer about this season. And, it certainly meant a lot to manager John Meyler.
