It’s a repeat of the 2013 Leader Cup Final as Longford Slashers beat Killoe at Emmet Park on Saturday night, having led by 0-8 to 0-4 at the break, to set up a meeting with the title holders Mullinalaghta St Columba’s.
Longford Slashers . . . 0-12 Killoe Emmet Og . . . 0-9
On that occasion Slashers were the county champions but the Mullinalaghta side denied the sky-blues the championship and Leader Cup double. Slashers will now be out to deny Mullinalaghta and they will be hoping to cause an upset.
