Impressive Cork reveal fighting spirit to reel in Waterford
The 2,707 in attendance saw Waterford begin with the strong wind and enjoy the perfect start, Eoin McGrath charging through the middle and goaling from the throw-in.
With Cathal Curran and Michael Mahony chipping in as well, Cork were 1-2 to no 0-0 behind on five minutes, and they needed Matthew Bradley’s two points to settle. As the game wore on, both sides deployed a spare player behind their half-back lines to sweep, which cut down the supply to the full-forward lines and reduced chances to a minimum in the first quarter.
