Colm Collins looks on as his Clare side take on Limerick

Clare football manager Colm Collins is happy with his side's win over Limerick at the Gaelic Grounds and is already looking forward to the Munster semi-final against Kerry.

The Banner County earned a 12-point win over their neighbours and had 13 different scorers.

"You’d have to be happy with that," Collins told RTÉ Sport.

"Especially the way they finished in the second-half and I’m delighted to get over the line."

His side now advance to the Munster semi-final against Kerry in Killarney on 3 June. It's a third successive penultimate stage showdown with Munster five-in-a-row champions Kerry in Fitzgerald Stadium, and Collins is anticipating a tough challenge.

"It is a big task, that’s where we are going, no better arena than Fitzgerald Stadium for playing football, we will be really looking forward to it and we will give it our best shot.

"We will have plenty of work, there are lots if things to tidy up on but please good we can do that and give a good performance in Killarney."
