Wexford SFC: Clongeen qualified for their first final with a 0-11 to 0-8 victory over Kilanerin at Wexford Park yesterday.

They will play Starlights in the final after the Enniscorthy side beat HWH Bunclody by 1-10 to 0-11 in the other semi-final at the same venue yesterday.

Clongeen led by 0-8 to 0-5 at half-time. Matty Forde's introduction for Kilanerin in the second half was not enough to halt Clongeen despite the county star scoring two points.

Starlights had to hold off a HWH Bunclody recovery to emerge with their victory, Jason Russell scored their goal.
