Stereophonics provide icing on the cake for happy Cork crowd
Musgrave Park (Virgin Media Park) rarely bows to visiting Welsh rugby teams. Only a 2008 Welsh victory here over Ireland's Under-20s springs to mind. Saturday night, however, before these psychedelic, riff-tastic dragons we stood in ovation and then we bowed with gratitude. They start at 9pm sharp. One suspects that they'd have kicked off earlier but for the Munster Hurling Final going into extra time. This is exclusive subscriber content. Already a subscriber?

Liam Delap left out of England Under-21 squad for European Championship
Liam Delap has been left out of the England Under-21 squad for this summer's European Championship with the striker set to be involved in the Club World Cup with new team Chelsea. The 22-year-old forward, who signed for the Blues for a reported £30m this week, was part of Lee Carsley's provisional squad list but will not take the trip to Slovakia. There is no suggestion, however, that Delap is considering a change of allegiance, despite Heimir Hallgrimsson revealing last week that he has spoken to the current Ireland management about his international future. "I'm definitely disappointed," said Carsley, speaking at the squad announcement. "I'm delighted for Liam and his family. "I think it's a brilliant thing for an English centre-forward to play in the Premier League, at such a prestigious club like Chelsea. "Hopefully he'll do really well there and push for the senior team. And we'll move on. We'll move on quite quickly." Carsley's squad was announced on Friday as the Young Lions bid to defend their 2023 crown, with Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton another notable absentee. Delap scored for England Under-21s against France in March, but will miss this summer's tournament to feature under Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca in the inaugural Club World Cup, which starts on June 14 – three days before the Under-21 Euros get under way. Wharton is another high-profile absentee for Carsley but the Crystal Palace midfielder missed the final games of the season after he suffered concussion following their FA Cup final victory last month. Tino Livramento, Jarell Quansah and Elliot Anderson have been included in the England Under-21 squad after senior boss Thomas Tuchel namechecked the trio last month and urged them to play a "major role" in the tournament. James McAtee has been selected despite Manchester City being set for Club World Cup action. The midfielder struggled for minutes at the Etihad last season but was reintegrated into the Under-21 group last week having been left out of the initial squad.
