Galway came back from 13 points down to beat Wexford in their final group game in the Leinster senior hurling championship in Chadwicks Wexford Park (24th May 2026) and book a final meeting with Dublin.

Goals from Jason Rabbitte and Conor Cooney helped the Tribesmen come back from the concession of three early goals on a sunny Sunday afternoon.  New champions will be crowned for the first time since 2019 as Kilkenny exited the championship following defeat to the Metropolitians, while Offaly advanced to the All-Ireland quarter-finals.

Galway Bay FM's match commentary team, with reaction afterwards, were Sean Walsh, Andy Coen, Cyril Farrell and Niall Canavan.
