Cork defeated Tipperary by 1-18 to 3-8 in the Cadbury Munster GAA Football Under 21 Championship Final on Wednesday April 9th at Pairc Ui Rinn.
Rebels weather storm for four in a row
By Denis Hurley for the Irish Examiner newspaper
Cork 1-18 Tipperary 3-08
It may have been four Munster U21 football titles in a row for Cork but they were made to work for it as Tipperary produced a strong fight back at Páirc Uí Rinn last night. Cork could probably have felt unfortunate to be leading by ‘only’ five points at half-time, 0-12 to 1-4, after dominating much of the first half. A goal from sub Colman Kennedy barely a minute after his entrance had helped to rise Tipp from their stupor, however, and things were to get even better for them upon the resumption.
While a point from a free from Michael Quinlivan was answered by a John Corkery score at the other end, Tipp then really got going. Midfielder Steven O’Brien was on hand to finish after good work from John McGrath and Greg Henry before O’Brien’s midfield partner, Colin O’Riordan, made it a one-point game.
Quinlivan, who scored five of Tipp’s eight points, converted a free to tie matters, but the visitors were unable to push home their momentum. Had Quinlivan nailed a 42nd-minute effort, it might have made things more interesting, but Cork regained their footing instead. Two Dan MacEoin frees sandwiched a brilliant Alan Cadogan effort and then the impressive Seán Kiely opened up a six-point lead with a well-taken goal. Greg Henry ensured that Cork could not relax as he raised Tipp’s third green flag but they could not find the necessary second wind for another comeback.
Cork manager Seán Hayes hailed the character of his side afterwards. “This is the second day that they have done it,” he said, “they did it down in Tralee as well. “They just hang in there, they’re a fantastic bunch of guys that play lovely football and they just kept playing the way that they had, the way it should be played. “Tipp got back level with us, which we didn’t deserve but at the end of the day it’s all about who’s ahead at the final whistle and we were by four points. Everything taken into consideration, I’m delighted.”
Being able to call on so many players with experience of winning, including with the UCC Sigerson Cup-winning side of this spring, was a big factor in the way Cork showed good temperament, according to Hayes. “We had seven on the Sigerson,” he said, “and about eight or nine on the UCC freshers team which won the All-Ireland league. “There were fellas who had played Fitzgibbon, guys who play senior with their clubs, everywhere you look there’s experience and class. When you consider that we were missing Cathal Vaughan, you see how good we are.”
Vaughan is unlikely to be back for the All-Ireland semi-final with Roscommon on Saturday week, but in Cadogan Cork appear to have a real star. As well as standing up when the need was greatest, he was also to the fore as the hosts ran riot in the first half in front of 4,164 people. With Ian Maguire and Killian O’Hanlon dominating midfield and Seán Kiely helping them from wing-forward, Cork broke forward at will, with wing-back Kevin Crowley getting two early points and Brian O’Driscoll – named at 5 but playing 11 – also central.
Their incisiveness was in contrast to Tipp’s slow build-up, with centre-back Séamus Kennedy one of the few to show attacking desire. Cork led by 0-10 to 0-3 after O’Driscoll’s second point in the 24th minute, but then Colman Kennedy netted to breathe new life into Tipp, a good Quinlivan point helping them to believe that is was not over.
It certainly wasn’t, but despite drawing level, they could not find the lead. Cork’s running at the Tipp defence yielded the frees from which MacEoin scored and Kiely’s goal, following good work by John Corkery and O’Driscoll, was no more than his performance deserved. Henry’s goal – via a deflection – halved the deficit to three again with little under 10 minutes left, but this time Cork ensured they closed out matters in a businesslike fashion.
Scorers for Cork: D MacEoin (0-4 frees) A Cadogan 0-5 each, S Kiely 1-1, B O’Driscoll 0-3 (0-1 free), K Crowley 0-2, M Sugrue (0-1 free), J Corkery 0-1 each.

Cadbury Munster U21 Football Final: Cork 1-18 Tipperary 3-8
Report from the GAA.ie web site
Cork kept their composure as they overcame a Tipperary revival to make it four Munster U21 wins in a row at Páirc Uí Rinn on Wednesday night. Having trailed by 0-12 to 1-5 at half-time, Tipperary began the second half in fine fashion, with points by Michael Quinlivan and Colin O’Riordan augmented by a goal from Steven O’Brien as they tied matters.
Crucially, however, the visitors could not seize the lead and once Cork regrouped they would not be denied, even if Tipperary’s Greg Henry made things nervy when he bagged their third goal. Cork led from pillar to post, with Alan Cadogan and Dan MacEoin heavily among the scores in the first half as Ian Maguire and Seán Kiely did well in the ball-winning stakes. They led by 0-10 to 0-3 after Brian O’Driscoll’s 24th-minute point but Tipperary sub Colman Kennedy gave them hope as he scored a goal within a minute of coming on.
It got even better for them when they drew level in the second half, but scores from MacEoin and Cadogan settled Cork again and then Kiely found the net to put the matter beyond doubt. Cork will play Connacht champions Roscommon in the All-Ireland semi-final on April 19 in Portlaoise.

Munster Under 21 Football Championship – Useful Information
- Having failed to win a game in the Munster Under 21 Football Championship between 2002 and 2006, Tipperary have managed to win at least one match in this competition in 6 of the last 7 years, including the 2010 Munster title.
- Cork are going for their fourth Munster Under 21 Football title in a row. The last such sequence of victories for Cork came from 2004 to 2007 when they won four titles on the trot – each of them against different opposition in the final (Kerry, Limerick, Waterford and Tipperary). Cork have also won 3 or more Munster titles in a row in this competition from 1969-1971, 1979-1981, 1984-1986.
- At the turn of the millennium, only Cork and Kerry had won Munster Under 21 Football titles with Kerry out in front in the roll of honour by 23 titles to 15. Since then, Limerick, Waterford and Tipperary have captured 1 title each while Cork have dominated to the extent that a victory in the 2014 Munster Under 21 Football Championship will see the Rebel County draw level on the roll of honour with Kerry for the first time since the 1970’s.
- Kerry won five Munster Under 21 Football titles in a row from 1995 to 1999, winning the All-Ireland in three of those five years – 1995, 1996 and 1998.
- 4 of the last 6 Munster Under 21 Football Finals have been decided by one score or less – 2008 (Kerry 0-15 Tipperary 2-7), 2009 (Cork 1-9 Tipperary 2-5), 2010 (Tipperary 1-7 Kerry 1-6), 2012 (Cork 2-12 Kerry 1-14 AET)
- For the record Cork have appeared in 38 finals, one more than Kerry; Tipperary have appeared in 11 finals (5 of which have been in the last 8 years). Meanwhile, Clare have appeared in 10 finals; Waterford in 8 finals and Limerick in 4 finals.
