Offaly star Peter Cunningham said there was no way he was going to miss last Sunday’s win over Meath, despite having to cut his honeymoon short.
The Bracknagh man flew out to Rome to marry his fiance, Ruth, after the win over Longford earlier this month with some doubt surrounding whether he would be back for the Leinster quarter-final.
Having stayed in Italy to see out their honeymoon, he and his new wife landed back in Ireland ahead of schedule last Saturday morning and he played a key role from centre-back as Offaly secured a four-point win to set up a Leinster semi-final against Louth at Croke Park on Sunday.
