Rebels rack up record as Kerry are blown away

LAST night’s Munster U21FC final in Páirc Uí Rinn was a clash that promised much but ultimately only Cork could savour the action that unfolded.

Rebels rack up record as Kerry are blown away

The pre-match notions that this would be a tight and engaging contest were firmly shredded as Cork demolished a beleaguered Kerry outfit. It was a remarkable result as the Rebels claimed their fourth title in this grade in six years, with the margin of their victory simply staggering.

At the final whistle Cork had a hefty cushion of 22 points to spare as they comfortably eclipsed the previous record win in this competition, which was set in 1982 when Cork defeated Kerry 2-12 to 0-4 in the decider.
