John Evans brings the wow factor as Wicklow finally end the drought

Goalkeeper Mark Jackson was the hero, diving low to his left to save a 58th minute penalty from Nigel Dunne and scoring seven points from placed balls, all bar one of which were kicked from around the 45m line or further out.

Crucially three of those came late on in regulation time, all pressure attempts from distance to restore parity. Without Jackson, Wicklow would not be celebrating.
