Cork hit by injuries after Westmeath thriller

Cork 1-8 Westmeath 2-5

Clifford damaged soft tissue in his back, while both Kavanagh and McCarthy pulled hamstrings, as Cork denied Westmeath victory with a sensational last gasp goal from late substitute Padraig Griffin.

The Clonakilty forward punched home a Graham Canty free after two minutes of injury time to give Cork a share of the spoils after a fiercely competitive battle but Westmeath will kick themselves for letting the game slip.
