All Ireland U20 Football Championship for Shane

EirGrid All-Ireland U-20 Football Championship Final

CORK 3-16 DUBLIN 1-14

Saturday 3 August 2019 

 

Congrats to Shane Hickey who now has an All-Ireland Under 20 Football medal after his Cork team beat Dublin last Saturday in the final at O’Moore Park in Portlaoise.
Trailing by nine points after a nightmare start, you’d have been forgiven for concluding that it wasn’t to be Cork’s day in Portlaoise.

But Cork dug deep in what will go down as one of the great EirGrid U-20 football championship fight-backs, the Munster champions ultimately prevailed by eight points.
