Micheál Mullins and Diarmuid Healy bagged crucial goals for Cork while Ben Cunningham scored nine points.
OFFALY’S RISE WILL continue but it was Cork whose underage resurgence captured a third All-Ireland U20 title in four years at a sun-splashed Semple Stadium.
Adam Screeney , one of those fresh out of minor, was bending this final to his will in the first half. He had Offaly’s first three points, two from frees he won himself. The diminutive forward still escaped for the next point and sent Egan into space again, although Saunderson made the save. That run continued after the break with Mullins’ second solo goal in two games. It took just 10 seconds from the moment the sliotar left the referee’s hand for the throw-in to the net as the captain streaked past three defenders before his deceptive shot beat the keeper.Offaly trailed by 11 but their hopes weren’t fully extinguished as Conor Doyle latched onto a loose ball and showed fine composure in his finish.
