CORK HAVE NAMED an unchanged side for Saturday’s crunch All-Ireland hurling qualifier clash against Clare.
The Rebels have kept the faith with the team that saw off Wexford last Saturday as they bounced back from their Munster semi-final loss to Waterford.
There are changes amongst the Cork subs with Shane O’Neill, Patrick Collins and Luke O’Farrell all returning to the fray instead of Brian O’Sullivan, Luke Meade and Andy Walsh.
O’Neill has recovered from an ankle injury while O’Farrell is available again after being suspended last Saturday following the red card he was shown against Waterford in last month’s Munster semi-final.
Throw-in on Saturday in Semple Stadium is 7pm.
