David Power pleased with Wexford’s Easter passion play

Tipperary 2-12 Wexford 2-15: It came too little, too late, to preserve Wexford’s place in Division 3 of the Allianz Football League but the Slaneysiders finally produced a second half to be proud of yesterday. 

Fadeouts after half-time were a symptom of Wexford’s malaise en route to relegation to the league’s bottom tier but they were excellent in Clonmel yesterday, overturning an eight-point deficit to collect a second victory of the campaign.

For manager David Power, this was a sweet victory, as Tipperary’s 2011 All-Ireland minor winning boss returned to familiar ground.
