We’ll give qualifiers a right go, says disappointed Whelahan

LIMERICK manager Padjoe Whelahan said he was very disappointed following the narrow defeat: “Despite falling seven points behind we were always in the game. Losing by just a puck of a ball is hard to take.”

“We had chances, particularly in the first half when we were on top, but missed at least two goals. That’s something you cannot afford to do against a county like Cork. They’ll punish you every time.”

“Our game plan worked well for us in the first-half and we had Cork held in lots of areas, with the result they hardly got a shot at our goal.”
