coughlan’s retirement from hurling didn’t last long as he returned in 1976 to win a third munster hurling medal. this victory allowed cork to advance straight to the all-ireland final where wexford provided the opposition. things got off to a bad start as wexford went 2-2 up after just eight minutes. cork fought back and ended up winning the game on a score line of 2-21 to 4-11. the man who had retired just two years earlier had finally won an all-ireland hurling medal. in 1977 coughlan won his fourth munster hurling title. cork subsequently qualified for the all-ireland final where wexford provided the opposition for the second consecutive year. the game was just was close as the previous encounter, but cork ended up as the victors once again giving coughlan a second consecutive all-ireland medal. in 1978 cork defeated clare for the second year in a row in the provincial final giving coughlan a fifth munster title. this victory allowed cork to advance directly to the all-ireland final where kilkenny provided the opposition. the game ebbed and flowed for most of the seventy minutes with no clear winner emerging. thirteen minutes from the end jimmy barry-murphy scored a goal that gave cork a definitive victory. cork had captured their third championship victory in a row and coughlan, the man who came back, won his third all-ireland title. there was talk of coughlan retiring after this victory, but the possibility of winning a fourth all-ireland medal in a row proved too tempting an offer to turn down. in 1979 he won his sixth munster hurling medal and it looked as if cork might win an elusive fourth championship title. things came unstuck for cork in the all-ireland semi-final as galway defeated the champions. coughlan continued playing hurling in 1980 and he won a third national hurling league medal. he retired from inter-county hurling shortly afterwards.
