Two first-half goals helped secure the win for Cork over Tipp in their Glen Dimplex All-Ireland camogie semi-final clash at FBD Semple Stadium on Saturday evening.
This was always going to be a battle, but those two goals put Cork in control by half-time, and they drove on to victory.
This was a superb team performance for the Rebels as they dominated the early exchanges. Such was their first-half domination, they scored 13 out of 13 of their scoring chances and had no wides.
The wind was a factor but after the break they managed the game well to see them reach their sixth All-Ireland final in a row.
