Wexford hang on in blast from past

Louth 1-15 Wexford 2-13

This was championship football as we remember it from childhood. A game that lacked only paper hats and Micheal O’Hehir on the commentary.

No sweepers here, nor massed defensive ranks, just 15 on 15 old-fashioned football where goalkeepers sent kickouts long and high rather than low and near and the excitement levels bucked and swayed from first minute to last.
