Offaly Suffer Heartbreak In Tailteann Cup

Tuesday, 23 June 2026 at 10:50

Wicklow came from eight points down to take down the Faithful.

Offaly's hopes of reaching a first Tailteann Cup came to an end over the weekend. 

The Faithful fell to a 2-26 to 4-15 defeat to Wicklow at Croke Park, with Oisin McConville's side setting up a meeting with Down in three weeks time. 

Offaly led by eight points at the break, before Wicklow outscored their opponents by 1-17 to 1-4 in the second half to turn the game around. 

Defeat denies Offaly a first ever appearance in a Tailteann Cup decider. 

Joint Manager says Mickey Harte says they kept Wicklow in the game:
