Kevin Moran hailed Waterford's backroom team and his team mates after yesterday's All-Ireland SHC quarter-final victory over Wexford at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

The De La Salle man fired in the Deise men's goal just before half-time to give them a five-point cushion at the interval and was quick to heap praise on the newly redeveloped Cork venue afterwards. 

"It was fantastic," Moran told RTÉ Sport afterwards. "Everything about it, top-class facilities, top class.

"The atmosphere, it's what players want to play in. It was a really enjoyable day for us all. That's what it's all about.

"It's a 20-man game. Everyone's going out and giving it their all for as long as they can.

"Obviously you have to try and bring freshness to the team for I suppose the important part of the game, the last 15, 20 minutes.

"The boys have been great, coming off the bench and doing their role. It's a 50-man squad between back-room team and everyone involved. It's for everybody. Everyone involved has put an awful lot of work in."
