Selector Kieran Kingston was keeping his feet firmly on the ground after Cork's brilliant performance against Tipperary in last weekend's Allianz Hurling League opener.

"It was disappointing that we only drew the second half because considering we were so far ahead, we'd have liked to have driven on a bit more," he said in the Southern Star.

"We were completely on top in the first half, but I suppose there was bound to be a bit of a lull at some stage, and we knew Danny (Kearney) and Lorcan (McLoughlin) were working at midfield that they wouldn't be able to last the full 70 minutes.

"As it transpired, they didn't but, as I've said, that was understandable in view of the amount of ground they had covered." Tweet
