Where has this version of Cork been for so long?

Donncha O’Connor has been one of the very best forwards Cork has produced in the past 25 years, but he has always been an underappreciated footballer, writes Mike Quirke.

Keane was asked about how he continued to fight so hard for his team and deliver a stunning performance against Juventus in the 1999 Champions League semi-final after being booked and knowing he wouldn’t play in the final.
