“It is, and today was a Leinster quarter-final,” said Wexford manager Keith Rossiter after watching his team make mush of Carlow. “It’s old-school knockout hurling now and we’ll see where that takes us next weekend.”Tyrone prove too hot for Kerry as they claim sixth All-Ireland under-20 football crownWexford’s task was made a little easier by John Michael Nolan’s 65th-minute dismissal for Carlow, for a second booking.

Rory O’Connor showed his quality too, striking five points from play, and was among 14 different players to get on the scoresheet for Wexford. Wexford have loftier ambitions and showed real quality at times, with substitutes Séamus Casey, Kevin Foley, Charlie McGuckin and Tomás Kinsella adding 0-5 between them when they came on.
