Antrim will remain in the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship as they found the goal touch to overcome 14-man Carlow 4-22 to 2-22 at Corrigan Park.Carlow lost their first-half goalscorer Chris Nolan to a red card at the start of the second half as he was judged the main culprit in a dust-up that had broken up following the half-time whistle.
But Carlow seemed to always have an answer as they gradually opened a gap with a goal three minutes later as Nolan's pace enabled him to break clear before finishing from a tight angle. A third major came four minutes later from a penalty when Seaan Elliott was bundled over by Paul Doyle for what was deemed a goalscoring opportunity outside the area with Doyle also sin-binned with Cunning finishing the award to bring the game level.
Antrim began to take charge again with Keelan Molloy, Niall O'Connor and Gerard Walsh finding their range from deep.
