Cork 1-28 Tipperary 1-19
Ben Cunningham scored 1-13 as Cork moved to the top of the Munster Under-20 hurling championship table with their second victory at Pairc Ui Chaoimh on Wednesday night.
They recovered from a slow start to inflict a first defeat on Tipperary, who began with a draw against Clare.
In the first-half, Tipp led by double scores, 0-10 to 0-5 after 21 minutes, but Cork finished very strongly, outscoring their opponents by 0-7 to 0-1 in the remainder to take a one-point advantage into the second-half.

Cork dictated matters on the resumption, Cunningham pouncing for the opening goal after 38 minutes following a fine Adam O’Sullivan pass for a 1-15 to 0-13 lead.
They swept seven in front, when Tipp goaled via Sean Kenneally eight minutes from the end of regulation time but Cork powered on to an emphatic win.
