The game only briefly caught fire, with a goal for either side in the space of a minute, but the Ulster champions ground out a deserved win

It could have ended worse for Cork, with Shane McGuigan deliberately brought down by Mattie Taylor in the 71st minute. McGuigan stepped up to take the penalty, aiming low and left, his shot well stopped by Micheal Aodh Martin in the Cork goal.

Dumped out of the Munster championship by Clare, any sense that Cork could still salvage something big from their season evaporated once Derry hit back with their goal. Derry got their first score on 10 minutes, a free from McGuigan, who added a second three minutes later, when Maurice Shanley was carded for a high tackle on Gareth McKinless. Derry edged two clear with their first from play on the quarter hour, Ethan Doherty converting with some style and verve.
