Clare’s minors were undone by a strong finish from the Cork opposition in last night’s Munster Quarter Final at Páirc Uí Rinn.

Duggan drilled to the net for a 2-4 to 2-3 lead and at the break Clare were ahead by by 2-8 to 2-5 .
However Cork fought back in the second half and with nine minutes of normal time left – and a flurry of four points only answered by a Duggan free – the hosts snatched victory 3-15 to 2-14.
Despite the final score – Clare Minor Manager Eamon Fennessey says his side put in a very strong performance.
