Brave Cummins bloodied but unbowed

TIPPERARY goalkeeper Brendan Cummins has revealed a dizzy spell prevent him from returning for the closing minutes of Sunday’s Munster SHC victory over Cork after receiving seven stitches in a head wound.

Cummins dashed off the field with blood spurting from a cut over his right eye after diving bravely at the feet of an in-rushing Cork attacker.

Sub keeper Darren Gleeson was called and played the last nine minutes of normal time plus three extra for stoppages as Cummins felt dizzy after receiving treatment.
