Limerick dig in to earn a point against Cork City

Limerick 1 - Cork City 1: While they sit top of the table on their own after Dundalk’s late win over Waterford, Cork City found themselves frustrated by a strong Limerick performance at Markets Field last night.

In front of 1,341 spectators, the home side were good value for the draw, and looked more likely to engineer a third goal in the second half before holding out against a late City flurry.

With an unchanged team for the first team this season, the champions were uncharacteristically sloppy early on, with misplaced passes and skewed clearances.
