Goals win games, but plenty of points help too.
Galway took the plaudits at Salthill after a second-half performance that put them well out of sight of the chasing Deise men.
Waterford had the lead up until the 34th minute, with the scoreline poised at 2-11 to 2-12 in favour of the home side, but it was Conor Cooney combining with Brian Concannon to hit the back of Shaun O Brien’s net that made the difference. The Tribesmen never relinquished their lead from that point onwards.
