Offaly Bounce Back From Difficult Start In Win Against Laois

The two midlands counties faced off in the first round of the Joe McDonagh Cup at the weekend.

Offaly came back from a difficult start against Laois to win their first round Joe McDonagh contest in Tullamore on Saturday.

Johnny Kelly’s side trailed Laois in the opening quarter thanks to a series of quickfire points from a Laois side that controlled the majority of the first period.

A much improved second half saw the home side edge in front and stay there until the final whistle to win on a final scoreline of 3-19 to 1-22.

Manager Johnny Kelly says he was happy to see more goals hit the back of the net:
