Cork goalkeeper Patrick Collins reveals laid-back penalty shootout preparations for Munster final vs Limerick
THEY say a pat on the back is six inches away from a kick in the ass — and Cork received both at the TUS Gaelic Grounds in the space of three weeks. In Saturday night's epic encounter with Limerick, which saw the Rebels 2 Patrick Collins made a heroic penalty save in the shoot-out 2 Robert Downey and Ciarán Joyce with the Mick Mackey Cup The pitch became a sea of red as the visiting supporters gathered to witness Rob Downey raising the Mick Mackey Cup aloft. The scenes were a far cry from the aftermath of the previous meeting of the teams at the same venue on May 18, when Cork fans were left despondent by After claiming his first Munster SHC medal, Cork centre-back Ciarán Joyce said: 'The last three weeks in training was phenomenal. It was a real kick up the ass, to be honest with you. 'I'm lost for words. It's some feeling. In their own backyard as well, it adds to it. You can see how starved for success the Cork crowd are too.' Read more on GAA According to Joyce, the only way for Cork to respond to their 16-point trimming was to do their talking on the pitch. And that began with addressing the effort levels that dropped way below the required standard during a defeat described as 'embarrassing' by boss Pat Ryan. Joyce explained: 'There were no harsh words, but our work rate was questioned in that game and any time your work rate is questioned, it does get to you because you put so much into it. 'You could see that we fought tooth and nail for every ball and it's an unreal feeling when everyone in the 15 is fighting like that.' Most read in GAA Hurling The extra-time agony of last summer's But they showed their mettle to prevail through an additional period this time, before finishing the job on penalties. RTE GAA pundits argue over who started halftime row as Cork eventually topple Limerick in Munster epic final Joyce added: 'There's savage character in this group. Last year when we got to extra-time in the All-Ireland final, we learned a lot from that. "We stuck to our game plan and we didn't in the final last year.' Conor Lehane, Shane Kingston and Alan Connolly all beat Nickie Quaid to steer Cork to victory in the shootout. Patrick Collins also played a huge part by keeping out Tom Morrissey's effort. Reflecting on the vital contribution he made in his first-ever penalty shootout, Rebels goalkeeper Collins said: 'I suppose 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. "I suppose you're hoping for a bit of luck then. It's not something we practise too often, penalty shootouts — the odd time really. "I don't know how many of them I'll be involved in now but to come out on top in that one was unreal. 'I suppose at the end of training we'd 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 thinking that you'd go to a penalty shootout or whatnot. '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 that the chances are slim enough.' Cork aced three penalties in a row after Nickie Quaid kept out their first from Darragh Fitzgibbon. As well as the Collins save to deny Morrissey, Limerick were undone by strikes from Barry Murphy and Declan Hannon that missed the target. ENOUGH TO DO Asked if he considered being one of Cork's penalty-takers, Collins said: 'There was talks of it but I had enough of a job to be saving them, never mind taking them. I said I'd concentrate on the other end. "There are plenty of forwards who can take penalties. My job is to save them.' Collins is now a three-time Munster winner. But after being Anthony Nash's reserve in 2017 and 2018, the third time was the charm for the man from Ballinhassig. It has been a taxing season already for Cork, who now have two pieces of silverware on the board having also won their first National League title since 1998. With an All-Ireland semi-final to come on July 5, attention will soon shift to their ambitions to end another long wait. Twenty years have passed since Liam MacCarthy was adorned with red and white ribbons. Collins remarked: 'It's class. It's just building blocks really. I suppose we went after a performance and that's what we got. The result took care of itself. 'But we're under no illusion that in four weeks' time we're going to face a big challenge again. 'It's just about knuckling down for the next four weeks, work really hard, get everyone back in for competition and drive training on, no different to how we have in the last few weeks. '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.'

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.'

Shane Barrett: 'We came up here with one mission: to win. A brilliant day for Cork hurling'
TURNING Limerick over on their home patch 'is as sweet as it gets', Cork vice-captain Shane Barrett says. Kyle Hayes was man of the match when Limerick sent Cork back down the road tail between legs 20 days previous. Hayes sat on Saturday evening, Barrett marauded and blitzed. 1-3 from play chalked by the 32nd minute. Cerebral hurling, cerebral movement. 'I got it all in the first-half, I didn't do much for the other 50 or so minutes,' he quipped. 'Once we won, I couldn't care less [about my own individual contribution], and thankfully we did win.' Barrett clipped 1-2 from play when Cork turned Limerick over to keep their 2024 championship alive. Another 0-8 came off him that indelible night at Páirc Uí Chaoimh. In the five-in-a-row-ending All-Ireland semi-final win over the same green opposition two months later, he rose three white flags. Saturday gone, though, topped the lot. Seven-in-a-row stopped. Cork's first Munster success since 2018. His first Munster success full stop. 'You are coming up into an absolute cauldron. Limerick are going for seven-in-a-row Munster championships. They've made the Munster championship almost look easy the last few years. So this is probably as sweet as it gets, coming up here and turning them over. 'We have had great days over the past 12, 18 months. Hopefully we have a few more. But this is really special. We are really going to enjoy this for the next few days. 'Munster medals are very prestigious. Pat really spoke about the importance of it. People of Cork are reared on Munster championships. It has been seven years since we have been in a final. That is too long for a county like Cork. It is unbelievable for those of us winning our first. Hoggie, Sham, Lehane and Damo have three, and then the '97 crew and a few more have two. At least we can say we are joining that club now, so we are delighted.' Limerick rolled in an All-Star cast off the bench in an attempt to reach provincial immorality. Shane O'Brien nailed 1-2. Darragh O'Donovan put them in front approaching the end of regulation time. Peter Casey pointed too. Cathal O'Neill hurled an amount of ball in the middle third, albeit guilty of one incredibly poor extra-time wide. And yet it was the Cork bench that won this particular contest. Three points from Shane Kingston, two from Lehane. The latter nailed arguably the most crucial penalty of the nine struck after Cork found themselves two down early doors in the shootout. And this from a man making just his fourth appearance of 2025. Kingston was next in red to make the lonely walk and return a hero. Tommy O'Connell brought energy and a one-point contribution. Robbie O'Flynn, in extra-time, was fouled for a Darragh Fitzgibbon converted free and then assisted a Kingston white flag. 'We are not joking when we say the strength of our panel is, we think, the best in Ireland. Today showed that,' Barrett continued. 'Conor Lehane, he hasn't played much in the last 12 months. He came on against Waterford two weeks ago, got a critical point, and today sticks the penalty. He also clipped points and won frees. Absolutely invaluable. 'Shane Kingston too, Robbie O'Flynn, Tommy O'Connell put in a huge shift. Niall O'Leary came on. Brian Roche came on half-forward, had to go back midfield to do a job, it is just what he does. The strength of our panel is unbelievable, today really showed that. 'We were absolutely blown away here three weeks ago. We knuckled down, trained really well over the last three weeks. We knew up three weeks ago wasn't a fair representation of us as a team. We came up this time with one mission: to win. A brilliant day for Cork hurling.'
