Ian Maguire has been named in the Cork team for tomorrow’s Munster SFC semi-final against Kerry, despite management’s insistence earlier this week that the midfielder would play no part at Páirc Uí Rinn.

Maguire fractured a bone in his hand during a challenge game against Clare three weeks ago, with the word from the Cork camp at the time being that the 2021 captain would be sidelined for a minimum of four weeks and was thus ruled out for the visit of Kerry on May 7.
