Kilkenny have defeated Dublin 4-12 to 2-16 in the Leinster Under-21 HC quarter-final at Parnell Park tonight.
Mark Mansfield struck the crucial goal for the Cats in the last minute to deny the Dubs and seal a semi-final place.
Dublin had led throughout, going into the break 1-08 to 1-06 ahead, and looked on course for the semi-finals before Mansfield’s late interjection.
It was unfortunate on Dublin net minder Seanie Brennan, who performed excellently up until Mansfield’s long-range effort deceived him with the sun low in the sky.
Kilkenny now play Carlow in the semi-finals on Wednesday 24 June.
