Caulfield ensures provincial glory for MSL

KARL CAULFIELD was the goalscoring hero yesterday as his strike saw the Munster Senior League defeat their Leinster counterparts 1-0 to reclaim the FAI Umbro Intermediate Inter-League Cup, which they last won in 2008, in Tullamore yesterday.

The annual tournament, also known as the Michael Ward Tournament, is played out over the weekend between the top players from the Munster Senior League, Leinster Senior League, Ulster Senior League and a Connacht selection, where each province plays each other once in a mini-league.

The LSL won the tournament for the past two seasons and would have highly fancied to make it three in a row after they banged in an impressive 10 goals in their two previous matches.
