Clinical Cork crush Clare to seal final spot

LAST season, in Brian Cuthbert’s first competitive game in charge of the Cork minor footballers, they departed Cusack Park with a huge sense of relief after a late scoring spree helped them defeat Clare.

But when the teams met again at the Ennis venue last night, there was no such anxiety as Cork cruised to an emphatic Munster MFC semi-final success.

Clare helped create a genuine contest when these teams met in the opening round in Páirc Uí Rinn last month with a determined display.
