The red card shown to Cork’s Orla Cronin in the All-Ireland semi-final has been upheld by the Camogie Association’s hearings committee, the Irish Examiner understands.

The decision of the hearings committee means a three-game suspension for Cronin, ruling her out of Sunday's All-Ireland senior final unless Cork are successful in appealing the centre-forward's 57th-minute semi-final red card.
