Dalton delivers last-gasp winner

Declan Dalton was the Cork hero in sun-splashed Walsh Park last evening, hitting the injury-time penalty that snatched a dramatic win for the 14-man visitors in this Munster U21 hurling semi-final.

The spirit visible recently in Cork sides came to the fore as Dalton slammed home the match-winner five minutes into injury time for a sensational victory in front of 4,127 spectators.

Before the game began Waterford had a scare, with keeper Billy Nolan injuring a leg in the warm-up — the Roanmore man was able to take his place in the starting 15, however.
