Mulcahy weaves magic

Cork 4-12 Laois 2-08

The Rockbán All Star bagged 3-2 in the first-half at Sean Treacy Park in Tipperary Town as Laois were sent packing. Cork’s victory sets up a May 11 final showdown with Mayo, in what will be a repeat of the 2004 and 2009 Division 1 deciders.

Mulcahy, a prolific goalscorer, was in scintillating form again yesterday as the Leesiders, playing against the wind in the first half, opened up a 3-5 to 0-4 half-time lead.
