O’Brien hails Corbett’s hat-trick heroics
Tipperary’s Corbett recorded the first three-goal haul in an All-Ireland hurling decider since Cork’s O’Brien in 1970 against Wexford.
Corbett’s effort helped Tipp shock Kilkenny 4-17 to 1-18 at Croke Park last Sunday, four decades after O’Brien’s hat-trick contributed to a record 64-point final scoreline as Cork beat Wexford 6-21 to 5-10.
