Diarmaid Byrnes of Limerick iaa Niall Cashman of Cork during the Allianz Hurling League Division 1 Group A Round 4 match between Limerick and Cork at LIT Gaelic Grounds in Limerick. “We’ve got tremendous faith in this group of players,” John Kiely later affirmed. Cork were markedly understrength, picking a youthful side, while Limerick fielded nine of last year’s All-Ireland final team. Kieran Kingston admitted that his team were in dire straits early in the match with Limerick monopolising possession. Cork: P Horgan 0-9 (6f, 2 ’65); J O’Connor 2-1; D Dalton (2f), M Coleman (2f), S Kingston 0-2 each; C Cahalane, D Cahalane, R O’Flynn 0-1 each.
