Dan Morrissey says Limerick's confidence is high going into their All-Ireland SHC semi-final against Cork.

Morrissey delivered a Man of the Match display during Sunday's quarter-final defeat of Kilkenny and says the Treaty men will carry belief into their meeting with the Munster champions. But he also cautions against getting carried away:

"Limerick fans are great but maybe we have a habit sometimes of getting ahead of ourselves - before the Clare game people were talking about All-Ireland finals and we hadn't even gotten to a Munster final at that stage," the all-action wing back told The Irish Examiner.

"Limerick fans are great, I'm sure they'll be up in numbers for the semi-final, but Cork will be red-hot favourites for that. They're unbeaten, they've won three Munster championships in five years, but we'll give it our best shot. We'll leave it all out there on the field and we can't do any more than that.

"There's great belief between the young and the old lads, that belief is probably the big difference between previous years, and that may come from the big result against Galway in the league. Any team we go out against we believe we can beat them, so going up against Cork we'll believe we can beat them."
