Cork boss Kieran Kingston bemoaned his side’s second half slump despite a runaway victory over Limerick.
Leading by 14 points at half-time, Limerick won the second half by 1-8 to 0-6, with Kingston expressing disappointed that they didn’t put their foot to the All-Ireland champions’ throat.
He said: “I thought our first half was very good, we were very competitive, we did a lot of very good things, but in the second half I thought we were sloppy at times. We lost the second half by five points, which wasn’t what we set out to do at half-time, I’d be disappointed with that.
