Cork are though to the All-Ireland for the first time since 2013 a very impressive and well earned result from the rebel county and some great performances for Patrick Horgan and Shane Kingson coming off the bench.

Full-time score was 1-26 – 0-29 and Cork will now take on Limerick in the final and the search for tickets will be mental. The final will be in two weeks time at Croke Park and you won’t rule this Cork team out in having a right crack off this Limerick team and stop them from winning their third All-Ireland in four years. And Cork’s first since 2005.
