Cork Constitution dig it out against Belvedere

Cork Constitution 16 Old Belvedere 10: Cork Constitution had to come from behind to secure victory against a brave Old Belvedere outfit in this tightly contested Ulster Bank League Division 1A tussle at Temple Hill on Saturday.

It was an arduous week for Constitution, who had just a six day turnaround from winning the Munster Senior Cup for the 29th time on the previous Sunday, and Belvedere certainly made them sweat for this narrow league win that was secured off the back of a magnificent defensive performance.

Old Belvedere played a high tempo game and had most of the territory, but Constitution snatched victory with a try and penalty in a 90 second spell as the game ticked into the last quarter.
