Cork captain Amy O'Connor has praised the 'professional' attitude shown by fit again Ashling Thompson who is pushing for a first start of the season in Sunday's All-Ireland camogie final.

Thompson walked off the Croke Park pitch in disillusion after missing a stoppage time opportunity to level last year's Glen Dimplex decider against Kilkenny.
