Westmeath Secure Liam McCarthy Status with Second Half Surge Against Laois

Monday, 23 May 2022 08:54

Westmeath ran out 18-point winners in Portlaoise on Saturday evening.

Westmeath secured Liam McCarthy Cup status for next year with a strong second half performance against Laois on Saturday evening.

After a draw against Wexford the previous weekend, Westmeath backed that performance up with a 5-24 to 1-18 win in Portlaoise.

Laois could yet retain their Liam McCarthy Cup status if Kerry win the Joe McDonagh Cup Final.

Killian Doyle scored seven points at O'Moore Park on Saturday, and he's delighted to be staying in the Leinster Championship:

Offaly's Joe McDonagh Cup campaign ended in disappointment on Saturday with a five-point defeat to Carlow in Tullamore (0-22 v 0-17).

That result opened the door for Kerry, who beat Antrim to secure a place in the final, which will feature the same two teams in a fortnight.
