First-half goals from Amy O’Connor and Millie Condon powered Cork to a 2-15 to 0-17 victory over Tipperary at FBD Semple Stadium, securing a sixth consecutive Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Final appearance.

In front of a record semi-final double-header attendance of 10,311, Tipperary made the brighter start through Eimear McGrath and Clodagh McIntyre. Cork responded impressively, with Emma Murphy and the influential Sorcha McCartan finding their range before O’Connor fired home in the seventh minute after excellent work by McCartan.

Murphy finished the opening half with four points from play as Cork repeatedly exploited space in attack. Laura Hayes, Saoirse McCarthy, O’Connor and Orlaith Cahalane also raised white flags, while Condon struck a superb second goal in the 21st minute to leave the Rebels 2-11 to 0-08 ahead at the break.

Tipperary battled hard in the second half and threatened a comeback through McGrath, Grace O’Brien and teenage star Caoimhe Stakelum. A brilliant diving save from Amy Lee denied O’Brien a goal that could have transformed the contest.

Cork’s defence remained composed, with Méabh Murphy excelling as sweeper, and late points from Orlaith Mullins sealed an eight-point victory and another return to Croke Park.
