Win or lose, both Cork and Clare are planning big homecoming bashes after the two counties do battle again today in the replay of the All-Ireland hurling final.

For Cork, the welcome home for the team will take place on a stage on the South Mall at the junction with Parnell Place tomorrow evening.

Entertainment for the evening will kick off at 5.15pm and will continue until the arrival of the team, which is expected around 6pm.
