Neat point by Jamie Barron as Waterford cleverly work a free short.

Waterford 0-5 Cork 0-4
Signs of a Cork revival as Brian Lawton sticks over a point. They can’t afford to let Waterford get clear on the scoreboard early on.

23 mins – Shane Bennett won’t forget Páirc Uí Rinn as a venue. Last June, he finished his Leaving Cert on 17 June at 5pm, travelled 60km to Cork and won the man-of-the-match award as Waterford U21′s soundly defeated Cork. He’s back at the same stadium tonight and has just won a free that Shanahan converted.

Waterford 0-13 Cork 0-7
36 mins – Waterford explode out of the blocks with Shane Bennett hauled down and Maurice Shanahan points. Then Colin Dunford launches one over from distance.

63 mins – David Burke raises a white flag but it looks like it’ll take something special for Galway to salvage something here.
