Motivation won't be an issue for Sinead Goldrick and her Dublin team-mates in tomorrow's All-Ireland ladies football final against Cork.

The Dubs surrendered a six-point lead to the Rebelettes in the final 20 minutes of last year's All-Ireland quarter-final in Birr, and will have revenge on their minds at Croke Park.

"It's still a sore spot for the players that were involved and even to this day, you think about that match and letting it slip away," the Dublin captain said.

"The only thing you can do is take a positive from the loss and that will motivate us going into the game on Sunday.

"We have huge respect for what they've achieved and that group of players have achieved. We played them in the league final, there was two or three points in it, so we came off the pitch maybe feeling we underachieved.

"We'll definitely learn from the challenges we faced in that game, so we're looking forward to it."
