Relieved boss Sheedy savours Tipp’s net gain

CROKE PARK’S press centre hosts Liam Sheedy after yesterday’s win for Tipp over Waterford. Green flags dominate the conversation at his end.

“We got goals at the vital stages of the game that gave us that bit of breathing space, and by God, did we need it,” he says. “By the finish, Waterford had us back to six. We went 10 up and you think you can start relaxing but you can’t do that in this game.

“They had us back to six and were pushing and pressing hard and we lost our shape a bit. Loads to work on but overall, delighted for the lads.”
