The first-half was a poor affair with Cork's goalkeeper, Donal Óg Cusack, being sent off. In the second-half Cork took charge and secured a 0–23 to 2–15 victory and a place in the All-Ireland quarter-final. Clare were the opposition on that occasion and, once again, Cork gave a poor first-half display.
Cork's first-half was a lackluster effort, but they rebounded in the second-half to secure a 0–23 to 2–15 win over Clare and earn a place in the All-Ireland quarter-final.
