Longford Town – Wexford

Longford Town’s home advantage proved fleeting as Wexford snatched a 2‑1 victory, tightening the gap between the two sides in the league table. The defeat leaves Longford still perched in sixth place with 41 points from 31 games, their record balanced at 11 wins, eight draws and 12 losses and an even goal difference. Wexford climb to eighth, moving onto 37 points after recording ten wins, seven draws and 14 defeats, while their goal tally slips to 34 for and 46 against.
