DLS will heed wake-up call

DE LA SALLE boss Michael Ryan says his charges’ close shave against Cork’s Sarsfields is an invaluable wake-up call for Sunday’s Munster Club senior hurling final clash against Thurles Sarsfields at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

The Waterford champions had to go to extra-time to see off the challenge of the Glanmire outfit in the provincial semi-final and still had the minimum to spare — 0-22 to 2-15 — at the end.

“The semi-final against Sarsfields obviously couldn’t have been closer,” said Ryan.
