Sarsfields Leinster Championship Campaign Ends After Heavy Defeat To Cuala

The Kildare champions were hampered by personnel problems, with Barry Coffey and Matty Byrne unable to start and Ben McCormack forced off before half-time.

Kildare champions Sarsfields have been knocked out of the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship following a 1-18 to 0-10 defeat to Dublin champions Cuala at Parnell Park on Saturday evening.

They made a promising start and held a narrow 0-7 to 0-6 advantage at half-time, but struggled to contain Cuala after the restart.

The Dublin side took control with three early second-half points before Dan O'Sullivan found the net in the 41st minute, putting further distance between the teams.

Sarsfields managed just three points after the break, while Cuala added 1-12 to secure an 11-point victory.

The Kildare champions were also hampered by personnel problems, with Barry Coffey and Matty Byrne unable to start and Ben McCormack forced off before half-time.

Con O'Callaghan finished with six points for Cuala, who now progress to the Leinster semi-finals.
