Cork 2-19 Kilkenny 0-18 Cork claimed their 9th
All Ireland Intermediate hurling championship in Nowlan Park on Saturday following a close battle with titleholders Kilkenny. Goals were
key, and
full-forward Dan Man- gan supplied both – one in either half . It was 0-2 apiece before Cork – aided by the strong wind - struck the opening major after just six minutes with St Catherine’s player Man- gan finding the net. Kilkenny had the per-
fect response though with James Bergin popping over two from placed balls and one from midfielder Paul Hennebry. All square after 10 minutes. Cork found their rhythm once again, reeling off the next four points unanswered, two were courtesy of former county senior Cormac Murphy.
The free-taker
accuracy of James Bergin
kept the Kilkenny score- board ticking over. How- ever, white flags from Michael Collins, Stephen Condon (free) and Jack Walsh enabled the visitors into a 1-10 to 0-8 lead at the interval. Cork goalkeeper Shane
Hurley was called into action straight
from the
restart, and although play- ing into the teeth of the elements, crucially the Re- bels maintained the upper hand. The margin never going below three points. By the three-quarter junc- ture, Cork were 1-16 to 0-13 to the good. Stephen Condon was a constant threat while
from placed balls, captain
Michael
Russell from Aghada and Shane O’Donovan an- chored a solid defence. Kilkenny pegged back
with their only dropped points coming in their fi- nal group match against a rampant Kilkenny side.
