Limerick hit six

LIMERICK FC kept their promotion hopes very much alive with a 6-0 rout of basement boys Wexford Youths at Jackman Park last night.

Jeff Judge blasted home superbly from 25 yards on 19 minutes and added an equally impressive second nine minutes later with a low 20-yard drive. Paudie Quinn trebled that advantage with a near-post header from a Shane Tracy cross.

Ten minutes after the break Karl Keogh deflected a Tracy flick-on from a Rory Gaffney corner into his own net while Denis Behan made it five with a 60th-minute penalty.
