CORK FOOTBALL MANAGER Sean Hayes has named an unchanged team for Saturday’s EirGrid All-Ireland U21 football semi-final against Monaghan.

Hayes has kept faith with the same starting XV which defeated Kerry by one point to claim the Munster title last week.

Senior panelists Peter Kelleher, Stephen Cronin and Kieran Histon all start while Brian Coakley, who fired 1-1 in the Munster final, is given the nod at right corner forward again.

Cork, who have won the Clarke Cup a record 11 times, are aiming to win the All-Ireland at this level for the first time since 2009.

Throw-in at O’Connor Park in Tullamore is at 4.30pm, with the other semi-final between Dublin and Mayo preceding it.

1. Anthony Casey (Kiskeam)

2. Michael Mc Sweeney (Newcestown)
3. John Mullins (Eire Og)
