Heat off for Milford after close call from Barryroe

Milford 2-16 Barryoe 1-17: For Milford the heat is off, for Barryroe it could be a long hot summer as they bid to survive in the tough environment of the Cork IHC. 

Yesterday, at sunny Coachford, the west Cork side produced a magnificent second half response to their difficult situation at the interval, but just came up short.

Milford had to sweat to get through to the fourth round and out of relegation danger, but they deserved to do so having dominated the first half and having eventually coped admirably towards the end of the second period.
