Wicklow Minors – The Wicklow lads beat Dublin in Parnell Park last Wednesday with goals from Kevin Quinn and Eoin Darcy which helped Wicklow to a four-point win, 2-6 to 0-8.
Those two first-half goals had Wicklow six points to the good at the break, 2-4 to 0-4, and although they only managed two more points in a low-scoring second half, it was enough to see them home.
Wicklow’s win sees them leapfrog the Dubs into second place in Group 1, and victory in their final round robin match when they play already-qualified Meath on July 3 in Aughrim at 7.30pm will see them into the semis at Dublin’s expense.
