Jimmy Barry-Murphy hails ‘superhuman’ effort from Cork

Jimmy Barry-Murphy praised the character of his players on Saturday night, but he also cited his team’s structure in their win over Clare.

“I thought our lads showed unbelievable character tonight, I thought coming up here it was going to be a phenomenal battle.
