Cork lead Kerry at the break

Cork 0-07, Kerry 0-04 (half-time)

Cork lead Kerry at half-time in their Bank of Ireland Munster SFC semi-final replay at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

Dara O'Cinneide opened the scoring for the Kingdom, but two from Colin Corkery sent the Rebels into the lead.

Cork - aided by a strong breeze - began to edge ahead and a Martin Cronin point saw them lead by 0-03 to 0-01, before O'Cinneide put over his second free after 15 minutes.

Fionnan Murray and Brendan Ger O'Sullivan added two further points for Cork, before O'Cinneide again kept Kerry in touch with a free, which Declan Quill added to a minute later.

However, Cork hit back again through Murray and Alan Cronin to go in at the interval three points up - it remains to be seen whether Cork will hold their lead playing into a stiff wind in the second half.
