But this was a local derby in every sense of the word and we were dealing here with an Erin’s Own team containing some of the most seasoned players on the Cork club scene, players who have given sterling service down through the years.

This Erin’s Own side does not seemingly understand the meaning of the word defeat and they cannot and surely won’t be taken lightly by any side remaining in the chase.

Shane O’Keeffe contributed two vital points in the second-half as well while the introduction from the bench of Tadhg Deasy was important too while Stephen Murphy had a fine hour.
