Promoted Wexford eye glory

WEXFORD clinched promotion — and a place in the NFL Division Three final — after a facile 2-16 to 0-15 victory over Louth at Wexford Park yesterday.

A Padraig Matthews point inside 30 seconds put Louth ahead but that was the only time the visitors led. By the 20th minute the Model County enjoyed a 0-7 to 0-2 lead, through points from Ciaran Lyng (3) Adrian Flynn (2), Shane Roche and Matty Forde and after that it was plain sailing.

WEXFORD: A. Masterson; C. Morris, P. Wallace, B. Malone; A. Morrissey, D. Murphy, N. Murphy; B. Doyle, E. Bradley; S. Roche (1-2), R. Barry (0-3), A. Flynn (0-3); C. Lyng (0-3 fress), P.J. Banville (0-2), M. Forde (1-3, 0-1 free).
