Galway's jubilant Mullins: 'I thought we'd lost it'

Galway boss Vincent Mullins punched the air as his side dramatically came from behind to pip champions Kilkenny for the Erin All-Ireland Under-21 hurling title yesterday.

The Tribe starlets hit the final four points of a pulsating decider, played out in front of 7,360 supporters at Limerick's Gaelic Grounds. The Cats, bidding for a hat-trick of wins at the grade, pulled back from a 1-06 to 1-07 half-time deficit to lead 1-12 to 1-09 going into the closing quarter of an hour.
