Kilkenny to play Armagh in charity soccer match

The All-Ireland wining teams of Kilkenny (hurling) and Armagh (football) will meet in a charity soccer match at Buckley Park on Saturday week.

Armagh's Oisin McConville has already been on the books of Dundalk and Monaghan United while Diarmuid Marsden is considering a soccer career too.

The Kilkenny hurlers boast quality players in Henry Shefflin and James McGarry.

Cats skipper Andy Comerford said: "This should be a wonderful sporting occasion and a chance for players to say thanks to the fans."
