Dioralyte Walsh Cup
Dublin 2-17 Wexford 1-11
Dublin finished strongly to set up a Dioralyte Walsh Cup semi-final against Westmeath.
Ahead 1-10 to 1-5 at the interval, Dublin assumed a decent position before Wexford narrowed the gap to two points.
Substitute Joe Flanagan netted a crucial goal for Dublin, who closed out the deal with the minimum of fuss.
In the opening period Ollie Gaffney pounced for a 21st minute Dublin major, but Tomás Kinsella replied with a Wexford goal.
After the restart Eoin Whelan landed a couple of fine points for the home team, but Dublin weren't overly concerned.
Flanagan gathered a pass from Darragh Kenny before supplying the insurance score.
