Brian Lohan hailed his Clare side's battling qualities after they came from behind to snatch a share of the spoils with Kilkenny at UPMC Nowlan Park.

Shane O'Donnell led the fightback as the Banner preserved their unbeaten record in Division 1 and secured their place in the knockout stages with a round to spare.

"Delighted to get something out of the game because for long periods of the second half, it didn't look like we would get anything out of it," the Clare manager said in the Irish Daily Star.

"A draw means neither team lost, I suppose, and nobody wanted to lose. From that point of view, I suppose it's reasonable.

"We powered into it in the second half alright, probably a fair few mistakes and missed chances on both sides. At the end of the day, neither team can quibble with the result."
