Cork Senior A HC quarter-final: Blarney 1-21 Na Piarsaigh 0-19 

Blarney roll on. This quarter-final victory wasn’t half as convincing or ruthless as the closing scenes to their group campaign. It didn’t need to be. They took the lead in the 54th second and led uncontested from the fourth minute to the final whistle. Constant control.
