Victory at last for Horan as second-half goals lift Limerick
Defeat against Cavan and Limerick’s position at the foot of the table would have become more precarious. But they broke the resistance of the Ulster team with second-half goals by Stephen Kelly and Pa Ranahan. Survival is not assured yet but there is now a route to safety within Limerick’s compass.
“We said before the game that we had one target and that was to win the match,” explained a relieved Horan afterwards. “That was very satisfying and hopefully we can build on that. There were periods in the first half when we weren’t happy but we are good when we are on the front foot and that is the way we want to play football.”
