Waterford continued to dominate possession for most of the second half but without posing a huge amount of scoring threat while Wexford, without the ball, found it hard to raise Matt Connor from his slumbers between the Waterford sticks. Subs during the course of this half for Wexford were Duxey Dunne, Aaron O’Connor and Danny Doyle. Martin then scored a third for Waterford on 75 minutes when an error in the Wexford defence gifted him a tap-in. With five minutes to go, Kenny Browne amazingly avoided any sanction when he dived across Aaron Dobbs’s path to prevent him bearing in on goal after a rare error by Browne. Danny Doyle then got a yellow for roughing up Paddy Barrett before Danny Bolger pulled off a fine save to keep the final score at 3-0. Best for Wexford were Ross Kenny, Mikey Byrne and Owen McCormack while Waterford impressed all over the pitch with O’Sullivan and Drinan being the pick of the bunch in addition to Puri and Keegan. A very healthy attendance from Waterford brought the crowd to about 700.
