Jack Cosgrave finished with 1-4 for Shane Dowlingโs Limerick outfit in their opening game of the competition, but it wasnโt enough to get the measure of Cork who earned a six-point victory at Supervalu Pรกirc Uรญ Chaoimh.
The hosts were 0-11 0-6 in front at half-time before Adam Lee and Mark OโBrien helped Cork into a six-point advantage in the second half. Cosgraveโs goal from a penalty arrived with less than 10 minutes to play, leaving two between the sides. But Cork produced a final burst for victory, including a goal from Lee in the final minutes to give them their first win of the championship after losing out to Tipperary last week.
It was a second win in-a-row for James Woodlockโs Tipperary, and a second consecutive defeat for Waterford when the sides met this evening in Fraher Field.
Goals from Adam Ryan, Cillian Minogue and Billy OโBrien helped Tipperary into a 12-point lead in the first half but Waterford rallied well in the second half. Shane Power scored a goal to reduce the gap to seven points before Gearรณid OโShea also found the net to leave just three between the sides.
But the Dรฉise were unable to trim the deficit any further than that as Tipperary closed out with a five-point win after a brace of late scores from Darragh OโHora and Jack Cahill.
