What time and TV channel is Antrim v Cork on today in the preliminary All-Ireland quarter-finals?

This afternoon sees a pair of preliminary hurling quarter-finals take place with throw-in for both at 2 pm.

Kerry will host Wexford while Antrim, fresh off defeating The Kingdom in an enthralling Joe McDonagh decider, are hoping to dump Cork out of the Championship.

Sambo advice

Saffron legend Terence McNaughton spoke to the Irish Mirror earlier this week about how they can maximise their chances of pulling off a huge upset.

“It’s a tight pitch. It’s definitely not a Croke Park and Antrim have nothing to lose.

“Antrim’s in a great position. Like, Antrim can go at this game without any pressure.

“I’d imagine they’ll play a sweeper, I’d imagine they’ll try and tighten the defence up and stay in the game for as long as they can and try and get Cork to press the panic button like and if it comes down to a dogfight anything can happen.”

He added: “Antrim went out and they threw the shackles off and they tore into Waterford (in the League). That day against Waterford they were even the better team, only for a missed penalty.

“My concern with this team sometimes is the consistency level. Whenever they’re expected to do it, the pressure doesn’t sit well with them.”
