A late run of points from Shane O’Donnell, Tony Kelly, and Aron Shanagher secured a memorable victory at the Gaelic Grounds.
CLARE HAVE BEEN threatening to turn over Limerick for a while now. On a memorable night in front of 30,460 fans at the Gaelic Grounds, they finally got over the line.
A Mike Casey Hail Mary was finished to the net by Séamus Flanagan to give Limerick one final chance at an equaliser. Clare didn’t allow them to get that shot as they revived their Munster hopes with a fully merited victory. Kelly had two early points and he almost followed up with a goal but for the outstretched leg of Nickie Quaid directing his shot onto the post.
Brian Lohan was happy to take the chance of pushing up without leaving any extra cover to protect his defenders. It worked, for the most part. Kelly missed a glaring chance to immediately level as their scoreless spell extended to 13 minutes before Ryan Taylor snapped it. The visitors turned the game on its head in the 40th minute. After O’Donnell and McCarthy restored their lead, Duggan robbed William O’Donoghue and blasted to the net with a bouncer that deceived Quaid.
