Rebels make vital point

Cork 2-14 Tyrone 0-20

This was a game where Cork trailed by four at half-time but then led by three as the clock reached 68 minutes.However, Tyrone refused to yield. Seán Cavanagh gave them hope with a point and then Kyle Coney kicked his ninth point following the rash concession of a free by Cork. When Cavanagh took a pass from centre-back Matthew Donnelly, he would have scored had he not been fouled and sub Ronan O’Neill tied matters.

There was time for one last Cork attack and Fintan Goold’s effort with his weaker right foot convinced some of the home support it was headed over only to come back off the left upright and David Coldrick called a halt.
