LIMERICK will face Clare (away) in next week’s Munster Minor Hurling Championship semi-final, following last night’s 0-20 to 1-14 loss to Cork at the Gaelic Grounds.
The Shannonsiders led at the interval 0-10 to 0-9, but the visitors were cleverer in score execution in the closing-half.
Darren Collopy of Murroe/Boher hit five points for Limerick, whose goal arrived from the stick of Monaleen’s Dara Ferland.
The Rebels are straight through to the May 9 Final.
