Rebel goals the difference

CORK conjured up a dominant second-half display that saw them home with plenty to spare in yesterday’s Munster JFC semi-final in Fitzgerald Stadium in Killarney.

Rebel goals the difference

Cork’s ability to strike for goals left them in good health throughout the tie. Fiachra Lynch smacked a fine left-foot finish to the net in the seventh-minute to propel them into an early lead and it acted as the separating margin at the interval, as they held a 1-3 to 0-4 advantage.

Kerry midfielder Andrew Garnett launched over the opening score of the second-half, but Lynch pounced for a critical goal again in the 33rd minute. The score had a twin effect of emboldening Cork for the remainder of the match and hampering Kerry’s hopes of a recovery.
