Dermot McCabe hails Westmeath after getting Tailteann Cup back on track with win over Laois in prelim quarter-final
DERMOT McCABE was delighted after Westmeath outclassed Laois in their Tailteann Cup preliminary quarter-final. The Lake County missed out on a place in the last eight a week ago when they fell to a late defeat against Limerick. Advertisement But the Leinster outfit rallied to swat aside Laois in Mullingar. And boss McCabe said: 'We were disappointed with last week's performance and we had two very good training sessions this week. 'We felt the lads were up for it as well as gaining a few lads back from injuries, which was a big help.' Despite Matthew Whittaker's shot hitting the bar in the sixth minute, Westmeath led by a point after 13 minutes. Advertisement Read More on Tailteann Cup The outstanding Sam McCartan took centre stage midway through the first half with a brace of two-pointers to put the hosts in control. McCabe's men finished the first half strongly with Luke Loughlin slotting home a penalty two minutes before the break. And after the hooter sounded, Westmeath increased their lead when skipper Ronan Wallace finished off a great move by finding the net from point-blank range. Westmeath extended their advantage to 14 points when Whittaker raised a green flag in the 42nd minute. Advertisement Most read in Sport Video The O'Moore County had a purple patch when they scored five points without reply. Two points from McCartan, either side of a neat score by Kevin O'Sullivan, then killed Laois off.

What time and TV channel is Kilkenny v Galway on today in the Leinster final?
It's Galway's 17th season in the Leinster Championship and it's their 12th final, 10 of which have been against Kilkenny, including a draw and replay in 2018. They've won just two of those deciders against the Cats and have lost the last three, all of which they were fancied for to varying degrees. Not so much this time, despite coming into the final in decent form having reeled off four successive wins, as the defeat to Kilkenny in the opening round was so comprehensive that you couldn't back them with any great conviction. It'll hardly be a 12-point margin again but, with Kilkenny, you can be virtually assured that they will play to their level. Galway are still a long way from earning our trust in that respect. Verdict: Kilkenny Where is the game being played? The game is being played at Croke Park. What time is throw-in? Throw in is at 4pm. Can I watch the game on TV? Yes, it is live on The Saturday Game on RTÉ 2, with coverage starting at 1.30pm. Is the game being streamed online? Yes, it will be streamed live on the RTÉ Player. Betting Odds: Kilkenny: 4/7 Draw: 8/1 Galway: 21/10
