Clare boss Brian Lohan is praising his side for producing a battling performance to pick up their first National League points of 2022.
A brace of second half goals from the returning Tony Kelly and Shane Meehan helped Clare to a 4-20 to 0-16 win over Offaly in Tullamore.
2-12 of that tally came from Kelly, while Peter Duggan also made his first appearance in a Clare jersey since 2019.
Lohan says while it took time to grow into the game, he was pleased with how his side stuck to their task to grind out the win
Next up for Clare is a showdown with Limerick in Cusack Park, with the All Ireland champions still looking for their first points of the season after losing out to Cork.
