Nearby in Offaly, Tullamore are celebrating their first senior football title since 2013 after they made no mistake in the replay against Rhode.
After being caught in the drawn game with a dramatic late goal from Niall McNamee, Tullamore also conceded late on here with Anton Sullivan netting from a penalty.
But Tullamore were in control at that stage and ran out 0-9 to 1-4 winners after a powerful last quarter display. They were in front 0-4 to 0-3 at the interval, Ruairi McNamee scoring all of Rhode’s points, but Tullamore had plenty scorers like Luke Plunkett and Johnny Moloney as they pulled away in the second half and will now face Kildare winners Naas next Sunday in Leinster.
In Wexford, Shelmaliers are again celebrating senior football glory, defeating Gusserane 2-11 to 1-10. It’s their second title in four seasons in football, while they also won the hurling title last year.
