Clohessy inspires Thurles

Thurles CBS 1-10 Cashel CS 1-4

Outclassed by a superb Cashel side during an opening half in which they failed to score, Thurles produced a magnificent second half comeback to book their semi-final place against St. Colman's, a side they’ve already beaten in the preliminary rounds.

Cashel had every reason to feel gutted at the end of an enthralling local derby contest which drew a massive crowd. They outhurled and outfought their more fancied opponents in a marvellous opening half, at the end of which they led 1-4 to nil, and they had every reason to feel confident.
