Bowen: wounded Banner gunning to shock Rebels

MARTIN BOWEN’S confidence in Cork beating Galway in Sunday’s All-Ireland qualifier was well founded, but the Cork selector sounded a note of warning ahead of Sunday’s All-Ireland quarter-final clash with Clare.

“The Galway game is done and dusted now and Clare are lurking in the wings, and this Sunday’s match against them could be a potential banana skin for us. Cork would be expected to win, but no two opponents are alike and they have something to prove after losing the Munster final to Tipperary.”

Bowen admitted that he’s worried about the amount of energy Cork expended to beat Galway last week.
