Brian Cody admitted that Colin Fennelly's goal after 18 seconds left underdogs Carlow fighting an uphill battle in Netwatch Cullen Park today.

"There is no doubt the start was very important," the Cats boss told RTE Sport. 

"It gave us that kind of a impetus that rattled them a bit as well. It allowed us to build up a bit of a lead. They did come back strongly. If they had built on their goal it would have been a more precarious game for us but overall we did okay."

A home clash with Galway on June 9th is next on the agenda for Cody & Co before a trip to Wexford.

"There are two huge games to come. The next game is all we will focus on for now against Galway in Nowlan Park. We have to go to Wexford in our final game so there is a huge amount of hurling to be done yet. 

"We have a few injuries for sure. We'd love to have everybody available to us but we don't have. The medical team will look after the lads and we focus on who we have."
