Keane far from happy as Cork reach final

Cork 5-9 Antrim 2-11

They now play Kilkenny in next Saturday’s final in Thurles, but Cork coach John Keane was still not happy: “If we perform like that in the final, Kilkenny will hockey us,” said Keane. “We were ring rusty, very complacent at times and didn’t play anywhere near as well as we can.

“Antrim may have been understrength, but they put up a tremendous display, and the seven point victory is a bit flattering to our lads.
