Paddy Small stars as Dublin down Cork gears to reach All-Ireland SFC quarter-final
DESSIE Farrell says it's 'foot on the throttle' time now after steering Dublin through to the Championship's last eight. Advertisement 2 Dublin came good with a strong finish to see off Cork to seal a spot in the quarters 2 Paddy Smalls was man of the match in the win over Cork on Saturday They played in 'fits and starts', as boss Farrell said, and chugged along at times like a side powered by dirty petrol. With no Con O'Callaghan, it was left to Paddy Small to provide the inspiration and he took the Man of the Match award. Ballymun man Small blasted four points while free-taker Cormac Costello and the ultra reliable Sean Bugler split 10 points evenly between them. John Small was excellent at centre-back in just his third start of the season too, scoring a point and setting one up for sibling Paddy. Advertisement READ MORE ON GAA But it was more Renault than Rolls Royce overall and Farrell will be hoping that's the end of the misfiring with an All-Ireland quarter-final to come. That's the stage that Dublin bowed out of last year's Championship at, to Galway, and Farrell is desperate to drive on. He said: "It's foot on the throttle time now at this stage of the season and senior players come into their own. Everyone ups their game at this time of the year and it's a great learning environment for our young fellas to be operating in. "To be fair, I think the senior lads are loving the energy that they're bringing and the enthusiasm they're bringing as well. Advertisement Most read in GAA Football Exclusive "But we all know ourselves, we're far from the finished article. There's so much more room for improvement in our performance. "But I still think there's more potential within us to be realised and that's the challenge for us between now and next weekend, seeing can we tap into that." 'Just in time for Father's Day' - Dublin GAA legends welcome the birth of precious baby daughter Dublin trailed at half-time and were still a point back with 15 minutes to go despite a terrific Brian Howard goal in the 45th minute. But a Cork side that has stuttered and stumbled through another season under John Cleary couldn't sustain that effort. Advertisement Full-forward trio Chris Og Jones, Mark Cronin and Brian Hurley notched 1-10 between them for the Rebels. But when the finishing line was in sight, Dublin motored towards it and pinched four of the game's last five points. Farrell said: "It wasn't a classic performance by any stretch but it was one where we needed to show a bit of character and dig deep - and thankfully the lads did that." Farrell reckoned Dublin were 'naive' when they failed to build on their bright start, having hit the game's first four points. Advertisement They only added three more points before Bugler lofted over a two-pointer in almost the last play of the first-half. Cork were far more efficient and seemed to rise to the occasion, just like they did against Kerry in the Munster championship. They led 1-8 to 0-9 at half-time and really turned it on in a period between the ninth and 16th minutes when they reeled off 1-3 without response. Jones blasted the goal, finishing a well worked move off a sideline kick under the Hogan Stand and shooting low across Stephen Cluxton. Advertisement Jones finished with 1-4 and showed plenty of class but Cork have put in too many middle-of-the-performances this year to really trust them to finish the job. They did at least push Dublin all the way and refused to relent even when Howard slammed in his goal. Howard spun away from Sean McDonnell too easily, although his finish high into the corner of Micheal Aodh Martin's goal had a Lamborghini stamp of class about it. Cork could have tossed in the towel but reeled off four points in a row to briefly lead again. Advertisement O'Callaghan's quality, and calmness, was missed in the Dublin attack. They got some punch at least from sub Luke Breathnach who pinched a point and their experienced performers stood up as well. Costello, Paddy Small and Bugler all weighed in with hugely important scores late on as Dublin turned the screw.

JP McManus consoles Limerick players on pitch following shock Dublin loss
Limerick billionaire JP McManus was on the field of play as he met some of the dejected players following their shock All-Ireland quarter-final loss. Still All-Ireland favourites coming into the game, it looked like it would be a walk in the park for Limerick, with Dublin's captain Chris Crummey sent off in the opening 15 minutes. From there, Dublin battled to produce possibly the greatest shock in hurling history to win the quarter-final clash by three points and punch their ticket to the All-Ireland semi-final. McManus, who has been a long-time supporter of Limerick GAA, joined the players on the pitch afterwards as they licked their wounds after a loss and it is the first time since 2018 that Limerick will not compete in the All-Ireland semi-finals. "Losing is losing on my side, I can tell you," Limerick boss John Kiely said after the match. "It all hurts and it will hurt as much as it did last year. We wanted our season to continue, we wanted to be back in training next week and it's over now, that's it. "And that's sport, that's the competition. It's disappointing but it's the reality, we wish Dublin the very best of luck as they go forward now. That's it, we're done. "Dublin deserve great credit for their performance, to win that game with 14 men for such a long period of time is a fantastic achievement for them. "Things stuck for them today, when they went to catch a ball, it stuck, they were really good on restarts, ours and theirs, breaking ball was a real strength of theirs today, they were really, really good on the breaking ball. "And whenever they got the chance to go for goals, they were very accurate and they gave themselves a chance to win the game. When the opportunity to win the game came in the last 10 minutes, they seized those opportunities."

Dublin get there in the end against battling Cork
All-Ireland SFC preliminary quarter-final: Dublin 1-19 Cork 1-16 For a long time, this was shaping up to be Cork 's big win of the season. Just as Donegal had run foul of a fluent performance by John Cleary's team a year ago, so too Dublin looked to be on the receiving end this time. There were a couple of differences. Twelve months ago, Cork were at home in Páirc Uí Rinn and more alarmingly for the home team, this was no round-robin affair but an All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final. In the end, Dublin had enough composure to see it out but for most of the match, Cork were either ahead or staying within a point or two. READ MORE The evening started poorly for Dublin with the news that captain, Con O'Callaghan was out. He was replaced by Lorcan O'Dell but only a few weeks ago, in his absence, Armagh had won much as they liked on a visit to Croke Park and an air of apprehension settled on the disappointing crowd of 36,546. Initially, there looked no issue and the favourites sprang into a four-point lead, with a brace of points from Paddy Small and others from Ciarán Kilkenny and Seán Bugler. Cork's calm persistence characterised the first half. Chris Jones was allowed to get too close and opened the scoring in the ninth minute, followed shortly after by Mark Cronin's free to halve the lead. In the 12th minute a line ball from Brian Hurley into Ian Maguire was carried towards the Dublin goal before he spotted Jones making a run and like that the ball was in the net and the lead changed hands. Hurley's follow-up point meant that his team had shot an unanswered 1-3 in seven minutes. Dublin had been having some success on kick-outs, as Peadar Ó Cofaigh-Byrne got his hand to most, landing in his vicinity but Cork's intervention on the breaks improved and by the end of the half, they were stretching away by four after Jones kicked another score for a lead of 1-8 to 0-7. There were some bright spots for Dublin. An energetic display by Killian McGinnis was highlighted by one dispossession in the 23rd minute and Ó Cofaigh-Byrne won a throw-in to provide an assist for Cormac Costello but there was generally too much tentative play and a shot total of fewer than 30 told its own story by the end. On the stroke of half-time, Bugler hoisted a two-pointer to cut the deficit to two, 0-9 to 1-8 – an important contribution given how subdued the team's overall display was proving. [ Inspired 14-man Dublin beat Limerick in remarkable championship shock Opens in new window ] GAA All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Preliminary Quarter-Final, Croke Park, Dublin 21/6/2025 Dublin vs Cork Dublin's goalkeeper Stephen Cluxton dejected after Cork scored the opening goal Mandatory Credit ©INPHO/James Crombie Cork's inside forwards were constantly threatening and appeared able to score almost at will. Goalkeeper Stephen Cluxton came to his team's rescue when Jones was in on goal again but his opposite number Micheál Aodh Martin landed the 45. On the resumption, Bugler filled in the Con O'Callaghan role from last week by lurking on the spare sideline, awaiting the pop pass from Ó Cofaigh-Byrne, which had sourced two points against Derry at the start of either half but on this occasion, the Cuala centrefielder was beaten to the punch and Cork took off instead. Dublin did however level the match by outscoring their opponents 0-3 to 0-1 in the first 10 minutes of the half and even better, almost immediately hit the front, as Brian Howard rediscovered his scoring touch not from one of those sidestep and kick points but having pushed up front, he broke inside the D, lost the defence with a turn and rifled the ball into the net to put his team in front, 1-12 to 1-9. It will have disappointed Dessie Farrell that his team didn't use this as a turning point, instead continuing to play loosely and without much conviction. Cork to their credit took the goal in their stride and within three minutes, Colm O'Callaghan and Jones, from a turnover, reduced the deficit by two. Dublin needed to keep the scoreboard moving but Paddy Small kicked a terrible wide and after Ó Cofaigh-Byrne provided an assist for Gannon, his shot from an ambitiously tight angle was swallowed up by the Cork defence. Going into the final quarter, Seán Walsh restored Cork's lead and all the momentum of the Howard goal had evaporated. There was some energy off the bench for Dublin with the arrival of Cian Murphy and Luke Breathnach and the match teetered. To the winners' credit, they finally asserted themselves and after replacement Cathail O'Mahony levelled for Cork for the last time, Costello clipped a point from a Murphy assist and Paddy Small extended the lead. Cronin pulled one back but Daniel O'Mahony fouled Costello off the ball, giving his victim an easy free. In the 67th minute, the last chance came for Cork but Seán McDonnell's attempt at a two-pointer fell short into Cluxton's grateful embrace. The final play saw Howard set up Breathnach for the insurance score. Dublin make it into the quarter-final draw. It wasn't easy but what has been, this season?
