Cork name Horgan on the bench with O'Mahony set to start against Antrim

The teams meet in Corrigan Park in Belfast on Saturday.

PATRICK HORGAN HAS been named on the bench for Corkโ€™s All-Ireland preliminary hurling quarter-final against Antrim, with Tim Oโ€™Mahony brought in to start in attack.

Manager Kieran Kingston has made that sole change in the team he has announced for the game in Corrigan Park in Belfast on Saturday afternoon.

Horgan has been the star attacker in the Cork team over the past decade, a four-time All-Star winner and recently hit a milestone as he became the top scorer in the history of the hurling championship.

Oโ€™Mahony has been established as a wing-back in recent seasons but came off the bench to impress in attack towards the end of the Munster round-robin series, finding the net in the win last time out over Tipperary.

Cork have made one alteration to their replacements with Mark Keane named instead of Eoin Downey, who is exam-tied as he began his Leaving Cert this week.

Saturdayโ€™s game throws-in at 2pm and is available to livestream on GAAGO. The winners will advance to face Galway at the All-Ireland quarter-final stage.

    @James Finlay: WTF what? This is about Shamrock Rovers not the Queen. Go back to reading about the Queen if you want to make daft comments. Well done Rovers

    @Mick Hyland: you obviously werenโ€™t following the match on here, where the commentary was interrupted to share news about plans for the queenโ€™s funeral. So thanks for making my point for me. I had no interest as I wanted to read about Rovers. Gombeen.
