Cork minor manager Michael O’Brien praised the heart shown by his charges during a storming final quarter to their Munster final against Limerick that Cork took by 0-9 to 0-1.

Having seen a four-point interval lead become a one-point deficit at the end of a Limerick-dominated third quarter, O’Brien couldn’t commend his players enough for how they responded coming down the final stretch.
