Wexford 1-24
Antrim 2-20
HARRY KEHOE STRUCK late to halt a remarkable Antrim comeback and snatch a win for 14-man Wexford in Division 1B.
The resurgent Saffrons trailed by eight points midway through the second half but looked to have completed mission impossible with an unanswered 1-6 that gave them the lead.
But Kehoe held his nerve at the death to send the crowd home happy from Wexford Park.
The hosts led 1-12 to 1-9 at the break, Paul Shiels’ goal for Antrim cancelled out by Liam Og McGovern, but they had to play more than half the game with a man less after Tomas Waters was dismissed for striking.
Despite their numerical disadvantage, they completely dominated after the restart and looked to be home and dry at 1-21 to 1-13.
But Antrim chipped away and took a 2-19 to 1-21 lead when a free was flicked in for their second goal, only for Kehoe to deny them at the last.

Up the Dubs
Your muppet. But I love the way yourself and Steve are so fascinated with cork! LOVE IT!!!!!!
I don’t have a muppet
I’m glad you love it Patrick. Love is in the air!!!!
Spot on again Nelly. It’s only non Cork people who can’t admit to that and also can’t see how they are the laughing stock of the GAA world now as they can’t fight like men for promotion but instead have to get their daddy (Frank Murphy) to mind them and get them a free pass so they don’t throw all their toys out of the pram, again!!
Sure didn’t the Kilkenny CB support the new league proposals, Steve. Did you take it up with them them instead of spamming this place with your repetitive drivel or were Ned Quinn & Co. too busy concocting conspiracy theories ? And Frank Murphy is a Kilkennyman. And you can see it by his latest attempts to destroy Cork hurling by appointing that incompetent fool Kenneally to the U21 hurlers job and underachieving areskisser Cuthbert to the senior football job. Frank is the best friend the Powder Pissers have.
Kilkenny can support what they want as they are league champions. Kilkenny will be in the top division regardless. Cork are the gutless ones looking for an easy out!!
Paul would you leave Nelly and Steve alone, you’d have a “chip on your shoulder” too if you were not from Cork.
Kilkenny being league champions is completely and utterly irrelevant. The point is that the Kilkenny county board supported the league proposals put forward, the ones you are alleging every day by spamming this site are yet another Cork conspiracy., If it’s a conspiracy, Kilkenny are in on it too. Why don’t you spam them?
I hear Noel King’s at a loose end. Premature choice by Cork County Board!
Sweet jesus keneally as u21 boss. Joke shop. The man is an embarrassment
Merrrrrrrr
Of course Cork are supporting the new proposals as it promotes them without them having to play a match. Crazy decision from the GAA
RATIFIED!!!!
Sam won’t be returning to lee side
