Dublin salvage point at the death with last second equaliser by Kate Sullivan against Waterford
A LAST-SECOND equaliser from Kate Sullivan salvaged a draw for Dublin in a cracking TG4 All-Ireland SFC opener with Waterford in Dungarvan. Despite the absence of top scorer Kellyann Hogan, the Déise led 1-13 to 1-11 with two minutes left. Hannah Power put in a player-of-the-match performance at midfield, captain Emma Murray was magnificent in defence and attack while Bríd McMaugh kicked four points. But the home side could not hang on for their first ever senior Championship win over the Dubs as a Hannah Tyrrell free and that buzzer-beater from Sullivan levelled the contest. And Dublin joint-boss Paul Casey was just glad to salvage a point. He said: 'We're extremely relieved. One thing we always ask this group is to fight to the end and they did that.' Read more on GAA A bizarre own goal from Sinéad Goldrick saw Waterford enjoy a 1-6 to 0-7 advantage at half-time. The experienced defender bungled a back-pass to Abby Shiel and the ball ended up in the back of the net. On the restart, Déise skipper Emma Murray won a turnover at one end and slotted a point at the other. Tyrrell brought the sides level on 32 minutes at 1-7 apiece when she finished low under home keeper Katelyn Gardner. Most read in GAA Football Emma Murray added her second point from play before Tyrrell dummied and pointed. The teams were level six times in the second half. Katie Murray and Lauren McGregor edged the hosts 1-13 to 1-11 ahead with time almost up. RTE GAA pundits argue over who started halftime row as Cork eventually topple Limerick in Munster epic final But Dublin did not panic. Tyrrell converted a late free and while Power won a huge kickout for the hosts, the Sky Blues retrieved possession and Sullivan got her kick away just before the full-time hooter. Deise chief Tomás Mac An t'Saoir moaned: 'I'm disappointed we didn't see it out. "We squeaked ahead towards the latter stages. We were two points up, we just didn't get over the line. 1 It was a tough start to the All-Ireland campaign for both sides as it finished 1-13 to 1-13 "A couple of decisions didn't go our way but that's football.'

'The fact it went to penalties is a bit mad' - Cork's Munster win with a difference
AS A GOALKEEPER operating at the highest level of hurling, Patrick Collins works relentlessly at preparing for game scenarios but Saturday night broke new ground for him. A penalty shootout between Cork and Limerick after an absorbing period of extra-time, was not just a new experience for the crowd watching on. 'That was my first time (involved in one),' reflected the Cork goalkeeper. 'I don't know how many of them I'd be involved in now, but to come out on top in that one was unreal. This is nuts. The fact it went to penalties is a bit mad. That's just the way we had to do it and thankfully we got out in the end.' Advertisement Collins made his mark by denying Tom Morrissey, who struck Limerick's fourth shot. Cork's goalkeeper Patrick Collins saves a penalty from Tom Morrissey. James Crombie / INPHO James Crombie / INPHO / INPHO 'If you could get even one or two that puts the pressure back on them and takes a bit of the pressure off our lads striking them. You're hoping for a bit of luck then. It's not something we practice too often, penalty shootouts, the odd time, really. 'I don't know how many of them I'd be involved in now, but to come out on top in that one was unreal. When you're going down to the Cork crowd and you get a bit of a cheer, it gives you a bit of a lift. But whatever way it went, you just have to manage it and deal with it.' So to what extent do the Cork hurlers practice penalties? 'At the end of training we do a few penalties just for the craic, myself and the forwards. That's it, really. It's probably more so for their practice rather than me. It's a bit of a laugh after training and we do it every so often. But to think you'd have a game going into penalties, I suppose the chances are that it's going to (be) slim.' The prospect had been raised for Collins to double-job and take a penalty himself. 'Well, there was talks of it but I had enough of a job to be (saving) them, never mind taking them. He (Pat Ryan) would have (asked) alright but I said I'd concentrate on the other end. But look, the lads, there's plenty of forwards who can take penalties. 'My brother would take them (for the club). I don't even take them. I don't even practice them.' Cork's goalkeeper Patrick Collins is congratulated by supporters after the game. Laszlo Geczo / INPHO Laszlo Geczo / INPHO / INPHO Cork's ability to emerge successfully from the shootout enabled them to remedy the situation they faced ater being thrashed by 16 points by Limerick a few weeks previously. A substitute goalkeeper for the 2017 and 2018 successes, this win carries a deeper meaning for Collins as a starter and one he hopes Cork can use as a springboard heading to the All-Ireland series.

It's just building blocks, really. We went after a performance and that's what we got and the result took care of itself. But we're no illusion that in four weeks' time, we're going to face a big challenge again. So it's just knuckle down for the next four weeks, work really hard, get everyone back in for competition, enjoy training. I suppose it gives the few lads with injuries just [a chance] to sort out their niggles and stuff like that, but it's time to go hard now again for the next four weeks.'
