Leinster SFC quarter-finals: Tullamore twins outfox Tinahely to end long wait for a provincial win

Offaly champions will now face Cuala in the semi-finals; Tom Jackson and Donal McKenny lead Ardee to last four

Leinster SFC quarter-finals: Tullamore twins outfox Tinahely to end long wait for a provincial winBut Tullamore’s impressive conditioning, panel depth and superior quality ultimately kicked in and they outscored Tinahely by 1-5 to 0-1 in the closing quarter hour or so.

That can’t be thrown at Tullamore any more, though six wides meant they only led by 1-4 to 0-5 at half-time when it should have been more. And when Rory Stokes palmed to the net for Tinahely in the 39th minute, it asked serious questions of Tullamore. Tom Jackson played a key role in the first goal, as his turnover led to Donal McKenny playing a neat one-two with Tadhg McDonnell, before firing low to the bottom corner to give the Mary’s an ideal start.

Eric Molloy and McDonnell traded scores, before a Kevin Murphy free left four between the sides at 2-2 to 0-4.
