So slick Cork turn on power

CORK were most impressive in this 15-point demolition of Tipperary, cruising into the Munster IHC semi-final at Semple Stadium yesterday.

Tipp, beaten provincial finalists last year, had no answer in a one-sided quarter-final as a slick Cork outfit booked a clash with Clare on June 21.

Cork, who led 0-10 to 1-4 at half-time, outscored the hosts 1-14 to 1-2 in the second-half. Maurice O’Sullivan’s 42nd-minute goal handed Cork a 1-17 to 1-5 advantage and killed the game as a spectacle.
