And in spite of being reeled in midway through the second half, when Muskerry took a one-point lead, the north Cork outfit responded magnificently hitting 1-3 to their opponent’s solitary point in the closing quarter.
The decisive goal, set up by county player Paudie Kissane, was finished to the net by full-forward Vincent O’Donoghue 10 minutes from time.
