Niamh Rockett was a big threat to Ger Manley's The underdogs were passing well and won many of the physical battles.

Mairéad O'Brien broke with ball on hurl to create a two-on-one before feeding Carton with the perfect pass to rattle Amy Lee's net.

Cork chairman gives update on Pat Ryan's future after ‘tremendously disappointing' All-Ireland final
CORK county board chairman Pat Horgan has updated fans on senior hurling manager Pat Ryan's future as his three-year term comes to an end. Cork's season came to a disastrous close as 2 Pat Ryan cut a helpless figure as the Rebels were destroyed 2 It was their second successive All-Ireland final loss The match marked the end of Ryan's three-year term as Cork boss where he said Chairman Pat Horgan - not to be confused with corner-forward Patrick Horgan - has decided not to rush into any decision on Ryan's future just yet. When talking to 'The executive will sit down and talk to all the people directly involved over the next couple of weeks. Read more on GAA 'The senior hurling is very simple. It is a time for reflection for a couple of weeks and then we'll sit down and talk to everybody concerned. 'In my few words at the banquet, what I said is 35 minutes should not define a team, or a group.' The chairman also spoke on the controversial decision to Many fans were disappointed they will not get the chance to welcome home and thank the players for their hard work throughout the year. Most read in GAA Hurling The Midleton man commented: 'The thing about the homecoming is that we had never actually put it in place until we saw what the result was. "We respected their wishes that they just didn't want to go through with it, and we said that is fine. Henry Shefflin picks RTE Sunday Game Hurler of the Year but wants no blame for selection for best 15 picks 'I think that is fair and reasonable. We had it last year, and I think they deserved a bit of space to themselves. "I just think it was going to be so, so difficult for everybody involved. We understood. We respected it and we said fine." It wasn't all doom and gloom for the Cork hurlers this year as they picked up a cup double. A convincing league final win was followed up by an Cork have lost just three times this season including a league loss to Tipperary, a Munster round-robin loss to Limerick and the Liam MacCarthy Cup decider disaster. Another great achievement for the Rebels was that every one of their Championship games were played in front of a sold out crowd, a point Horgan wanted to celebrate. He added: 'The one point I made at the banquet very forcibly was that Sunday was our seventh championship game and every single one of them were sold out. "That is something the GAA and business community have benefited from considerably."

CORK are taking on Tipperary in a huge GAA All-Ireland Hurling final at Croke Park in Dublin. The match is 1 The All-Ireland final is underway in Dublin Credit: Sportsfile However, The Rebels have lost FOUR finals since they last collected the Liam MacCarthy Cup back in 2005 - including last year's showpiece where they were edged out by a single point. Cork now come up against who are trying to bridge a six-year gap themselves having not won the title since 2019. What happens if the All-Ireland Hurling final is a draw? Should the All-Ireland final finish as a draw then 20 minutes of extra-time will be played, at 10 minutes a half. Then if the match is still drawn the final will go to a replay. The replay is scheduled for two weeks after the final on Saturday, August 2. What has been said? Cork manager Pat Ryan - who lost in the bonus period last year - has been among those to criticise the finals going to extra-time. Ryan said: "It becomes a lottery [going straight into extra-time]. "We had fellas going down injured, we lost players during the game, Clare lost players – Shane O'Donnell went off, Peter Duggan went off. Most read in GAA Hurling "We lost Rob Downey, we lost Seamus Harnedy and Niall O'Leary. It's just a bit of a lottery. "A replay would be the fairest but look they were the rules coming into it, we had planned for it, we had spoken about it. "Going forward, I think it's a thing that the GAA should change."
