Cork edge Limerick in classic

Cork edge Limerick in classic

Cork have secured a dramatic victory over 14-man Limerick in a Munster Senior Hurling Championship classic at SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

Three stoppage-time points proved decisive as the Rebels overcame the reigning champions in front of 43,000 fans.

The win revitalizes Cork's championship campaign, though it was soured by a season-ending ACL injury to star defender Ciarán Joyce.

Limerick manager John Kiely admitted his side's lack of depth was exposed during the frantic final minutes of the encounter.
