Sligo get a massive scare

THE expected result, but it came in unexpected circumstances. The Datapac Sigerson favourites survived a scare in Rossa Park and had the Cork IT forwards kicked better, the weekend would have been ignited by a shock.

Sligo IT 0-12 Cork IT 0-8

Sligo IT are this year's dream team, backboned by names like Kevin Cassidy, Paul Finlay and Nicky Joyce. However, they didn't play like favourites yesterday and when Cork IT eventually started believing they could win, in the second half, Sligo took a long time to answer the questions posed.
