For those in a hurry, the Gaelic Grounds was not the place to be last weekend. Cork and Limerick produced a version of Long Day’s Journey Into Night, a game that started at 6.0pm not ending until the first-ever penalty shootout to decide a Munster final had been completed.
Declan Hannon’s lift and strike skipped past the goalpost, Limerick’s third failure in five attempts, leaving Cork victorious.
