RELIEF for Sarsfields in advancing to the quarter-final of the Cork SHC but frustration for Na Piarsaigh over their failure to get their noses in front when they had the momentum to erase a narrow deficit in the closing stages in Páirc Uí Chaoimh last evening.

Ballydesmond 1-9 Glanmire 0-9

IT WAS billed as the game of the round between two former champions, but this Harty Cup first-round clash at Cahir yesterday never got off the ground, as Thurles CBS eased their way to victory.

MISSION accomplished for Cork, as they eased past Antrim in yesterday’s All-Ireland SHC quarter-final, but the Leesiders didn’t have it all their own way for long periods in Croke Park.

Cork 1-25 Antrim 0-19

A DULL, listless day in Galway – even the weather was less than committed – but Cork and Galway served up a relatively entertaining NHL Division One game, despite having nothing to play for.

DAVID CUNNINGHAM, Glen Rovers, takes over the full back slot left vacant by the injury to Eoin Cadogan for Cork’s last game in the preliminary rounds of the Allianz NHL against Galway at Pearse Stadium on Sunday.

DON’T be fooled by the scoreline above, especially if you’re a Limerick hurling supporter.

IT’S stating the obvious Cork would have preferred not to have had their anticipated place in the All-Ireland football semi-final wrapped up at such an early stage in Croke Park yesterday.

Cork 1-15 Meath 0-09

THE Cork team to play Kerry in Sunday’s All-Ireland SFC replay in Croke Park shows one change in personnel and several positional switches from the team which earned that dramatic draw last Sunday.

JOY for Newtownshandrum, heartbreak for Imokilly at Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Saturday, the Evening Echo Cork senior hurling champions surviving a searching quarter-final test from the East Cork divisional side (1-14 to 0-15), who might be celebrating victory but for two glaring misses at the end of a fabulous contest.

GUTSY Sarsfields upset former champions Na Piarsaigh at Páirc Uí Rinn to reach the third round of the Evening Echo Cork Co SHC, 2-12 to 0-9, and force the city side, with Sean Óg Ó hAilpin and John Gardiner in their ranks, into a relegation battle.

THEIR winning margin was just a point less than the lead they enjoyed after five minutes, but Erin’s Own were never pushed in this Evening Echo Cork SHC clash at Páirc Uí Rinn on Saturday.

FOLLOWING champion Newtownshandrum’s opening round Cork County SHC victory over Bride Rovers on Friday, Cloyne, the beaten finalists for the last two years, got down to business in fine style at Ballynoe yesterday when beating Killeagh 4-10 to 3-6.

A HUGE statement of intent from red-hot Glanmire in Mayfield yesterday, as they powered past Ballinora in a one-sided Evening Echo Cork Co Premier IFC clash (0-17 to 0-7).

Glanmire 0-17 Ballinora 0-7

DCU 0-8 UCC 0-6

Kerry 2-15 UCC 0-7

Cork 3-14 Galway 1-10

Glanmire 1-8 Castletownbere 1-7

THE struggle between club and county continues in Antrim. With the county U21 hurlers due to play Kilkenny in the All-Ireland semi-final in Navan on Saturday, several clubs are reluctant to release their players because of county championship matches the following day.

Cloyne 6-9 Sarsfields 0-8

TIPPERARY have named five members of last year’s Munster U21 HC winning side for tonight’s provincial semi-final against Limerick at the Gaelic Grounds.
