That was the greatest goal I ever seen. I was born and bred in Thurles but my father was a Limerick man and we were at the match that day, it was amazing. A Tipp man till the day I die but always admired Fenton, he was a great player and this goal summed it up.
Limerick supporter here - I saw it first hand, or to put it more accurately - I was there that day looking at it! It's simple if you love the game and its skills - you'll cherish this.
I was 13 and in the Town End. Cork were starting to take control after a great drawn game. All I can recall was Fenton striking the ball and couldn't believe it had hit the net. It was all so fast. I thought it was destined for a point but then heard a sudden extra load roar from the Cork supporters and a green flag being raised. Unbelievable! That match was also the first game where nets were placed behind the goals in Semple Stadium to stop balls going into the crowd.
He was a real stylist remember the other great cork goal by jbm the overhead pull v galway pass was send it just high enough with fierce pace by john Fenton

JBM for me !
Hon cork
should have been saved easily
You’re just jealous Cork are good
There's no keeper past or present that would have saved that!!!
To much power on the shot the goalie would of never it
By who?
@@pcset12 by the goalkeeper, no shot from 50 yards out should be able to get past any goalkeeper who's concentrating properly
