Students upset Dublin at Parnell Park

UCD 2-9 Dublin 1-10:A 63rd-minute goal from substitute Sean Meade helped UCD overcome Dublin by two points in the O’Byrne Cup at Parnell Park last night.

After a sloppy start by the hosts, admittedly playing into a strong breeze, they fell behind to early scores from Eoin Lowry (2) and Larry Moran.

Dublin’s struggles continued as their deficit grew following scores from Sean Mullooly and Conor McCarthy and it was of scant surprise when defensive hesitancy was punished as Tom Hayes netted in the 28th minute.
