CIT give a masterly display against Tipp

Cork Institute of Technology 1-10, Tipperary 0-5

No question, the Cork Institute, with earlier victories over Clare and UCC under their belts, will now face Limerick next Sunday confident they can upset the holders, and selector Liam Hodnett, who was full of praise for his charges, is looking forward to the final.

Said Hodnett: “yes, Limerick will be a tough test, but we proved today we can play nice football. Fitness-wise, we are probably at our peak, with the Sigerson fast approaching. In fairness, Tipp are only just back into the swing of things, so I suppose we had the legs on them. But I still thought the lads excelled today and the way they played for each other was a treat. If we do the same next week, who knows.”
