Dunne rues close call but urges players to play on

Liam Dunne didn’t want to make a huge issue of it — noting Diarmuid Kirwan performed decently — but he admitted the referee’s decision not to stop play for attention to Tomás Waters was damaging for Wexford.

The full-back was later discovered to have suffered a suspected a knee cruciate injury after falling awkwardly in the second half of Saturday’s All-Ireland qualifier.

In the time Waters was on the ground, Clare stuck over two points and, although Jack Guiney’s goal forced extra-time, it was a crucial period in the game.
