Cork-Gaa,Clare-Gaa

Steven Sherlock and Mark Cronin both make vital contributions after coming on

Cork’s bench presses as Clare crack under the pressure at Cusack ParkMayo put Connacht final defeat behind them with comfortable win over Cavan

Coming only minutes after an incisive Ikem Ugwueru run and centre across the square yielded nothing, Cork quickly countered in the 16th minute when Colm O’Callaghan’s ball over the top was cleverly flicked by Seán Powter over advancing goalkeeper Stephen Ryan. With a chance to regroup, Clare were a far more recognisable side on the resumption as they looked to quickly make up lost ground with a pair of Daniel Walsh points within four minutes of the restart.

That miss was magnified when only five minutes later, Clare did raise a green flag at the other end when Manus Doherty made a superb slaloming run down the left channel. He then passed inside to Aaron Griffin to place a ground shot to the bottom left corner of the Cork net to slash the arrears to just the minimum at 1-7 to 1-6.
