Fight for places pleases Jimmy Barry-Murphy

Cork manager Jimmy Barry-Murphy was pleased another Waterford Crystal Cup game had been secured but wasn’t reading too much else into Saturday’s win over Cork IT.
With six minutes of normal time remaining, the hosts – technically it was a Cork home game, though played at the CIT Sports Stadium – had drawn to within a point, 2-11 to 1-13, but the Munster champions turned the screw from there.
