Wexford tightened up their passing in the second-half with their ten men and worked hard enough to deny Kildare any real chances except for one shot from thirty yards which clipped the top of the cross-bar with Packie beaten. Wexford also created a number of chances, the best falling to Patsy whose shot was deflected by the Kildare keeper just the wrong side of the post. Other half-chances fell to Dempsey and Rowe who couldn't keep their shots on target. Goal came in injury time when two neat passes down the right side found Gary in space and his pin-point cross found Patsy on his own about ten yards out who headed it neatly away.
Tough on Kildare who didn't take advantage of their extra man but great effort from the Youths. Thought Peter White and Anto Russell closed off the middle of the defence very well after Breener went off while Patsy and Shane worked their socks off in midfield. About 100 there.
