Twin terrors torment Cork

Kilkenny 4-17 Cork 3-12

It wasn't just the three goals and seven points the pair scored between them, nor the fact that DJ also set up the fourth and final death-blow. It was the timing of it all.

Shefflin got their first goal, and it checked any impetus Cork might have threatened after Joe Deane latched onto the rebound of an Alan Browne shot that had come back off the post and goaled in just the second minute.
