Sean Hayes unfazed by Cork's soft final route

Sean Hayes isn’t the least worried by the easy ride his Cork U21 footballers have enjoyed en route to this evening’s Munster final in Tralee.

The visitors face a Kerry team which required two injury-time points to see off Limerick in the semi-final and who were very nearly caught in the quarter-final but for a last-ditch tackle to take the ball off the toe of Tipperary’s Colm O’Shaughnessy as he shot for goal.

Moreover, this is a Kerry side starting 11 players with at least one minor All-Ireland medal in the back pocket.
