Cork IT swept to a facile 2-13 to 0-4 win over an experimental Kerry side in a largely one-sided Waterford Crystal Munster Cup hurling clash in Ballyheigue. The winners benefited from the leg-up of an early Adrian Mannix goal after he was well set up by Cork senior Cathal Naughton in the 5th minute.

Kerry, mainly through the efforts of Shane Brick and Aidan Healy, stuck to their task but another goal by Cork from Ryan Clifford put the game well beyond the Kingdom. Tweet
