Clare 1-13 London 0-6: Producing one of their most disappointing performances of the campaign, London were completely outclassed by Clare in the final game of the series at Ruislip yesterday and, but for a string of superb saves by goalkeeper Gavin McEvoy, the result could have been even more embarrassing for the home side.

On top in most sectors, Clare's dominance of the midfield area meant that their forwards maintained an undiminished onslaught on the opposing goal with full forward Michael Dwyer sealing the result by scoring 1-2 of the winning total.
