The Cork Under-21 footballers have claimed their third consecutive Munster title. The Rebels have beaten Tipperary by 1-17 to 9 points at Semple Stadium.

Tipperary actually led their opponents by 5 points to 4 at half-time but a second-half goal from Mark Sugrue helped Cork to power their way to an 11 point victory.

That win has helped Cork to reach this month's All Ireland semi-final against Cavan, who retained their Ulster title by beating Donegal by 13 points to 1-6 in their final in Enniskillen.

The defending champions held a commanding 7 points to 2 lead at the break and they never looked like surrendering that advantage, despite a goal from Donegal's Willie Gillespie.

SOCCER

Barcelona and Bayern Munich have booked their places in semi-finals of the Champions League. Barca survived a massive scare in their quarter-final against Paris St-Germain after falling behind to the French league leaders before recovering to claim a one all draw, which was enough for them to advance on the away goals rule.

PSG knew that they had to score to have any hope of reaching the last four and, after they had dominated the opening half, Javier Pastore's well-taken goal in the 50th minute gave them a deserved lead.

The home side responded by introducing Lionel Messi off the bench and the Argentine star played a crucial role in setting-up Pedro for Barca's equaliser, which sealed a three all draw on aggregate.

Bayern's progress into the semi-finals was less dramatic after a 2-0 win over Juventus tonight saw them cruise to a 4-0 aggregate victory. Second-half goals from Mario Mandzukic and Claudio Pizarro helped the newly-crowned German champions continue their bid for a domestic and European treble this season.

The draw for the semi finals takes place tomorrow morning

Edenderry Town overcame Mullingar Athletic in the Youths Cup Quarter Finals at Gainstown

UEFA say they plan to investigate the remarks made by Malaga's president following Tuesday night's controversial Champions League quarter-final defeat to Borussia Dortmund. Abdullah Bin Nasser Al Thani questioned Uefa's integrity and suggested racism was a factor in his side's dramatic defeat after the Bundesliga side scored twice in injury time to complete a 3-2 win.

UEFA are proposing tougher sanctions to try and get rid of racism in football. Under new proposals, a club would be forced to partially close the area of the ground where racial abuse has come from if it's their first offence. A second offence would see a match being played behind closed doors while the governing body is also proposing that guilty players and officials be given a minimum 10 match ban.

Tommy Bowe looks set to make his first start since last December after being named in the Ulster squad for this Friday's Pro-12 clash with the Dragons.

Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund are through to the semi-finals of the Champions League - but only after surviving dramatic quarter-final battles last night.

Dortmund staged a remarkable late rally to earn a spot in the last four - beating Malaga 3-2 on aggregate.
Malaga twice took the lead against their hosts but Dortmund scored two injury-time goals to claim an unlikely victory, although Malaga were upset with Felipe Santana's winner, which appeared to have been scored from an off-side position.

In the other quarter-final, Real Madrid booked their place in the last-four - but not before they had to withstand a brave challenge from Galatasaray.

The Turkish club won the second-leg tie in Istanbul by 3 goals to 2 thanks to goals from Emanuel Eboue, Wesley Sneijder and Didier Drogba. But Cristiano Ronaldo's brace meant that Madrid did enough to advance with a 5-3 aggregate win.

Rory McIlroy says that it's doing a disservice to Tiger Woods to consider him an equal of the 14-time Major winner. McIlroy says that he's now "100 per cent there" in the transition to his new Nike clubs but insists that its still too soon to start talking of a rivalry between himself and Woods.

Speaking at Augusta National ahead of this week's tournament, McIlroy cited Tiger's 77 PGA Tour wins in comparison to his six victories as an example of the gulf that still exists between them.

McIlroy will play alongside 2011 PGA Championship winner Keegan Bradley and Sweden's Fredrik Jacobson for the opening two days. The trio will be the penultimate group off on Thursday, at around 6.40 Irish time.

Tiger Woods will play alongside fellow American Scott Piercy and Luke Donald for the first two rounds - teeing-off on Thursday at 3.45. Padraig Harrington will be in the group out immediately after Tiger's and will be playing alongside both Jason Day and Rickie Fowler.

Lance Armstrong's home city of Austin, Texas is to play host to an anti-doping symposium that will feature contributions from Greg and Kathy LeMond as well as Betsy Andreu.

While David Walsh has revealed that he and the Sunday Times are unlikely to ever get a feature interview with Lance Armstrong. A lengthy sit-down between Lance and Walsh was suggested by Armstrong's lawyer Tim Herman, as a possible make-weight in the cyclist's legal settlement with the Sunday Times
But Walsh says that the deal now appeared to be off the table because Armstrong is now reluctant to be seen to be settling legal cases while he's facing further action from a litany of former sponsors and insurance companies.
