Clare go the extra to send Cork crashing
Cork have no-one but themselves to blame either, because twice in the second half of normal time, after each of their two goals, victory was in their own hands.
The first occasion was in the 53rd minute, full-forward Luke O’Farrell finding the net from the rebound, after Clare keeper Patrick Kelly had denied Conor Lehane, to put Cork five points clear (1-16 to 0-14). Clare recovered from that, went on a powerful and what looked like a match-winning charge, outscored Cork seven points to one to lead by one with time running out.
