Limerick

[ForzaForth]

Better second-half performance from Wexford and a poor Limerick one meant that Wexford deserved to take the three points tonight. With Sinny and Patsy missing, Wexford started with Vickers, Kenny, Dempsey and Fitzgerald in midfield and Gary and Jimmy up front. Half-way through the first half, Jimmy switched back to wide right and Vickers went up front. With such a young side, Wexford played very direct in the first half and created two chances for Gary one of which resulted in a good save from the keeper. Limerick kept it more on the ground but Wexford's usual funnelling back meant that Packie had only routine saves to make.

Wexford tried to keep the ball more in the second half and created two one-on-ones for Jimmy and Lee Aust who came on at half-time for Vickers. But both were under pressure and neither could tuck them away. However, Limerick looked vulnerable in the middle of the back four and the goal came when the two defenders let the long ball bounce once again leaving Gary to lift it over the keeper and head it home. Second came about ten minutes later, when Jimmy was pushed over in the box and Breener drilling the peno straight down the middle. In contrast, Limerick kept it long in the second but hardly created anything with Breener and Peter White keeping O'Flynn quiet for the whole game.

Along with Gary, Breener and White, thought Lee Aust had a useful second half playing wide left while Dempsey looked our most creative midfielder. About 500 there but lots of kids so paying attendance would have been much less.

pretty much sums it up to be honest delighted with the three points
