Rathnew end reign of St Patrick’s in Aughrim battle

Champions St Patrick’s crashed out of Wicklow’s senior football championship in sensational fashion in their first-round qualifier match at Aughrim on Saturday.

This was a derby against parish rivals Rathnew and the teams were deadlocked at 0-2, 0-4 and 0-6 points apiece in the first half.

With the wind, Rathnew raced into a 0-10 to 0-6 lead in the second half, with county star Leighton Glynn on target moments after he was introduced.
