Wicklow 3-16 Waterford 1-10. Sweet goals from the boots of Wicklow's Kevin Quinn and Eoin D'Arcy early in the second half of the inaugural Tailteann Cup ...

Wicklow started brightly with the wind at their backs, a fine point from Mark Kenny and a Jackson free followed by those two scorching goals from Quinn and D’Arcy to leave it 2-11 to 0-6 after 10 minutes of the second half and Waterford were never going to recover. It was 0-6 to 0-3 on the half hour with two Jackson missiles the pick of the Wicklow scores as the home side started to find ways through the Waterford rearguard, but a fine Dermot Ryan effort off his right for the visitors left it 0-8 to 0-5 at the break. Sweet goals from the boots of Wicklow’s Kevin Quinn and Eoin D’Arcy early in the second half of the inaugural Tailteann Cup clash in Aughrim on Saturday sent the Garden County on to a comprehensive and fully deserved 12-point victory over Waterford.
