Classy Wexford secure promotion

A three-point win and promotion for Wexford in yesterday’s shootout in the sunshine at Casement Park, but the final score belies the story of the game and does the winners s scant justice.

Wexford were dominant for most of the game but a closing spurt by the home side brought Antrim into contention.

Ironically, that final fling was created despite the fact the Saffrons were down to 13 players after Brian Neeson and Tony Scullion were both dismissed within 30 seconds of each other on 64 minutes.
