Sheridan goal sends Kildare 6 points clear against 14-man London in Christy Ring final

Kildare 1-9

London 0-6

Jack Sheridan’s goal just before half-time has put Kildare in a strong position against 14-man London as the Lilywhites look to claim the Christy Ring Cup title.

It has been a fine performance so far from Joe Quaid’s men who have dominated most areas of the pitch, and they are full value for their six-point lead.

James Burke has been the heaviest scorer for the Leinster side as he’s chipped in with five points, with just one of those coming from a free, while Brian Byrne, Kevin Whelan, Eanna O’Neill and Paul Divilly have also landed scores.

London have relied on Aaron Sheahan’s free-taking, but they were reduced to 14 men when corner-back Lee Murphy was sent off following Sheridan’s 34th minute goal.
