Kerry ‘shocked’ at victory margin
“I’m shocked to be honest. I knew it was something we could do if we put in a performance and if everyone worked together, but Cork are All-Ireland champions so it is bit of a surprise. But, by no means do we think we’ve anything other than the Munster Championship won. If we want to go places after this, there’s a lot of work we’ll have to do,” said the Castleisland Desmonds centre-back.
The defeat was the biggest Cork have suffered since Eamonn Ryan’s reign began in 2004, even surpassing their 2010 All-Ireland quarter-final loss against Tyrone (0-13 to 3-11), and the disappointment was tangible as the Cork players watched Lynch lift the Dairygold Cup for Kerry’s second title in three years.
