John Kiely: ‘We were down to 14 men and still looked like we’d 15 on the field’

Conor Lehane is likely to escape punishment for his involvement in an off-the-ball incident, which Limerick manager John Kiely reported left Richie English with badly-bruised ribs.

After a break in play, referee James Owens consulted with his assistants before electing only to speak to the pair having earlier sent off Aaron Gillane for what Kiely believed was a similar incident.

Although Owens may be deemed not to have dealt with the matter and the altercation could be retrospectively pursued by the Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) tomorrow, there is not believed to be TV footage of what occurred.
