Walsh's Late Goal Earns Antrim Draw with Carlow

Gerard Walsh scored a dramatic late goal for Antrim, securing a 2-18 to 1-21 draw against Carlow in Division 1B hurling. Walsh's 35-meter strike came just as time expired, capitalizing on a lapse in Carlow's defense that allowed him to convert a free kick into a net-finding shot. Despite Carlow leading 1-11 to 0-8 at half-time, Antrim rallied in the second half, with key contributions from James McNaughton and Conor Johnston, who had earlier missed a penalty. The match saw a tense finish, with Antrim's late surge ultimately salvaging a point and keeping their hopes alive in the league. Carlow's performance was marred by missed opportunities and a late turnover that led to Walsh's equalizer. Antrim now looks forward to a crucial upcoming match against Laois that will determine their fate in the division.
