Clare whip Cats to set up Wicklow showdown

Unsurprisingly, Clare had no problem overcoming Kilkenny at Cusack Park in Ennis yesterday to set up a promotion decider away to Wicklow next weekend.

The tie was over as a contest as early as the 16th minute when Darren O’Neill goaled to give Clare a 1-6 to 0-0 advantage.

At half-time Clare enjoyed a huge 1-19 to 0-1 lead and a second goal by Michael Foran ten minutes after the break cemented their supremacy.
