Stephen McDonagh: 'No need to press the panic button on leaky Limerick defence'

Patrick Horgan scores Cork's third goal against Limerick

A case for the defence? Stephen McDonagh doesn’t believe one needs to be made.

At Páirc Uí Chaoimh the weekend before last, Limerick were taken for three goals in championship for the first time since 2021. They were taken for a points total of 27 or greater - across the regulation 70 minutes - for only the third time during John Kiely’s eight championship campaigns at the helm.
