Jimmy Barry-Murphy: Cork are definitely making progress

It would have been remiss of Jimmy Barry-Murphy not to have acknowledged Cork’s fortune yesterday, but he was readily humble about this last-gasp victory.

That, though, didn’t stop him acknowledging the resolve of his team to fight back from that 12-point first-half deficit. He cited Paudie O’Sullivan’s goal six minutes from the end of normal time as the jolt Cork needed.
