Offaly Dismantle 14-Man Wicklow To Reach Christy Ring Decider

Saturday, 24 July 2021 15:52

They'll play Derry in the final.

Offaly completed a facile win over Wicklow in O'Connor Park to give themselves a chance of redemption against Derry and promotion back to the Joe McDonagh Cup.

6-30 to 0-11 was the final score and the away side weren't helped by an early red card but in truth it was just adding to a scoring competition for the faithful forwards over the 70 minutes.

Oisin Kelly bagged a brace, Brian Duignan, Leon Fox, Killian Sampson and Ben Conneely the goal-scorers.

Awaiting in the final is a teak tough Derry side who dispatched Sligo by five points in today's other last four encounter.

That game is down for decision next weekend.

Offaly scorers:

Oisin Kelly 2-2, Eoghan Cahill 0-8, Brian Duignan 1-4, Leon Fox/Killian Sampson both 1-2, Ben Conneely 1-1, John Murphy/Shane Dooley both 0-2, David King/Aidan Tracey/Colm Gath/ Eimhin Kelly all 0-1
