The second half started with a good cross from the left by Longford which the incoming Longford forward just couldn't reach. After five, Tom got a yellow for what looked like dissent. After ten, Longford had a great chance to go two ahead when a free was headed on to find a Longford player free and coming in at the far post but he smacked the first-time half volley over from about six out when it looked easier to score. Midway through the second half, Wexford went three at the back when Shane Dempsey replaced Jimmy. Wexford then coughed up 2-3 good chances due to being stretched at the back but Longford made a mess of them all leaving it still all to play for going into the final fifteen. At this point, Aidan picked up a yellow for a tackle.Wexford's two chances to equalise then came at this point when, with seven to go, Danny curled a shot just wide when about eighteen out. With five to go, CJ hobbled off with James Scallan coming on. With two to go, Wexford nearly got the equaliser when Danny hit a goal-bound volley but it was deflected away agonisingly just wide of the post for only a corner and the match soon ended with a 1-0 scoreline for the home side.
