Willie Mulhall to rescue as Offaly almost falter against Leitrim

Goals from Mulhall and Nigel Dunne put the hosts into a commanding lead at half time, but 17 scoreless minutes allowed Leitrim gradually reel them in and it looked as if Ronan Kennedy’s late free would win the day before Willie Mulhall made his final, crucial intervention.
Scorers for Offaly: W Mulhall 1-6 (0-5f), N Dunne 1-2, N McNamee and N Darby (0-1f) 0-2 each, B Allen 0-1f.
