Cork captain Ian Maguire has had his proposed two-match ban following a straight red card he received during last Sunday\u2019s Allianz Division 2 Football League win over Meath reduced to one match, The Echo understands.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Maguire was dismissed in the 56th minute of Cork\u2019s 1-23 to 1-21 victory at P\u00e1irc U\u00ed Rinn after an off-the-ball clash with Meath\u2019s Adam O\u2019Neill.<\/p>\n
Referee Conor Dourneen cited the offence as \u201cstriking with force\u201d in his match report, an infraction that carries an automatic two-match suspension.<\/p>\n
The St Finbarr\u2019s man brought his case before the GAA\u2019s Central Hearings Committee on Thursday night.<\/p>\n
The decision to reduce the suspension to one match was based on evidence produced.<\/p>\n
Cork had been six points clear when Maguire was sent off, and although Meath rallied to close the gap to one, the Rebels held on thanks to a late insurance score from Chris \u00d3g Jones.<\/p>\n
It was the Leesiders\u2019 fourth victory from four games in Division 2.<\/p>\n
Maguire will miss Cork\u2019s upcoming fixture against Derry on Sunday at Find Insurance Celtic Park (1pm).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cork captain Ian Maguire has had his proposed two-match ban following a straight red card he received during…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":320456,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[1964,61,60,112],"class_list":["post-320455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-cork-gaa","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/320455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=320455"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/320455\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/320456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=320455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=320455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=320455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
