Sheehan’s goal rescues replay for Cork after epic with Tipperary
A Darragh Woods goal two minutes from the end of the second period of extra-time had the look of a winner about it, the Tipperary sub scooping the sliotar across the line on 78 minutes after Cork keeper Ger Collins had dropped Paddy Cadell’s delivery. Woods tallied 1-4 of Tipperary’s 1-5 during extra-time and when Willie Barry edged them 2-18 to 0-21 in front, that appeared to be that.
Referee Rory McGann allowed play continue and Cork were presented a lifeline in the guise of a 25-metre free. Evan Sheehan was handed responsibility and his dead-ball effort lodged into the Tipperary net to set up a replay at Páirc UÍ Rinn tomorrow (1pm).
