Kerry survive extra-time Clare test, Cork too strong for Limerick.
KERRY AND CORK will face off in next Monday night’s Munster U20 football final but they endured contrasting routes to victory in tonight’s semi-final ties.
Cork enjoyed the more comfortable win as they had 14 points to spare against Limerick in Páirc Uí Chaoimh. Goals in either half from attacker Hugh O’Connor and substitute Niall Kelly helped pave the way for their success by 2-14 to 0-6. But Cork took over for the remainder of the half to hit 1-4 without reply, a storming run by Walsh setting O’Connor up as he raced through before finishing to the net. Cork were ahead 1-8 to 0-2 at the interval, before they tacked on the points in the second half with Kelly’s goal increasing their advantage to 2-11 to 0-4 at that stage.
