Panel power the key
They may not have been hugely impressive, but I never felt Cork were in danger of exiting the championship.
The turning point was the goal chance Roscommon had early in the second-half. It was an excellent save by Alan Quirke and seemed to spur Cork on. Even if the ball had ended up back in the net, I don’t think the result would have changed, but it would have been a rocky and nervous road to victory for Cork.
