Four points separated the teams in Cusack Park.

Cork 1-23 Clare 2-16 IN A MUNSTER semi-final laced with fighting spirit from both sides, Cork overhauled a late Clare comeback to keep their All-Ireland U20 hurling title defence alive.

William Buckley was another star turn. Having taken Clare for eight points in their round-robin meeting, the St Finbarr’s prospect landed 0-9 here from 10 shots, with six of that tally from play.The hosts were backed by a strong wind and while Conor Whelan and Seán Rynne got them up and running, their shooting issues were equally evident from the off.

They twice drew level through Buckley and a Jack Leahy free before kicking on to make it a four-point run. There were fine scores among them from O’Connor, after a Tobin catch, and the metronomic Buckley. All the while, Cork padded out their lead, including three in a row from Healy, first-half replacement Timmy Wilk, and Buckley.
