Clare show their class on chastening day for Wexford.
CLARE 6-25 WEXFORD 1-18 Ronan Fagan reports from Chadwicks Wexford Park
Clare boss Brian Lohan had made eight personnel changes – including the seasonal bows for Kelly, exemplary centre-back John Conlon, Paul Flanagan and Ryan Taylor – from the 1-27 to 2-18 taming by Limerick. Clare gained an early foothold when, after an opening exchange of points, Reidy sent centre-forward Duggan through to net a 1-1 to 0-1 third minute lead.
And the margin was out to 3-9 to 1-4 in the 20th minute when Aidan McCarthy got on the end of a length-of-the-field delivery from ‘keeper Eamonn Foudy to drive to the Clonard-end net.
