Lilies pull off smash and grab
On Saturday night, Cork were ambushed at Páirc Uí Rinn courtesy of late goals from subs Niall Kelly and Paddy Brophy to complete a nice treble. Coming on the back of the O’Byrne Cup victory over Dublin and league opener against Donegal, Kieran McGeeney’s side have now beaten the last three All-Ireland winners in as many games.
The last time the Lilywhites won their first two league game was in 2004, and while that led to them topping the table, it was Division 2B and their championship campaign amounted to defeats against Wexford and Offaly.
