TIPPERARY SIDE CASHEL KING Cormacs booked their place in the Munster intermediate hurling final despite an own point at the start of their clash with Kerry’s Abbeydorney.
Cashel progressed with a commanding 3-16 to 1-14 victory but they made a bizarre start to the contest. After securing possession from the throw-in, Cashel forward Oisín O’Donoghue fired a long-range shot over the bar. His effort however, was aimed at the wrong set of posts to give the opposition an early lead.
