WATCH: Cian Lynch amazes with breathtaking piece of skill in Pairc Ui Chaoimh

The 2018 Hurler of the Year was at his mesmeric best in the Pairc as Limerick dominated their hosts in the third round of the League.

Yesterday Limerick picked up their third consecutive win in this years League after they defeated Cork in Pairc Ui Chaoimh for the first time since 2001.

Goals from Shane Kingston and Aidan Walsh weren’t enough for the Rebels with ten Limerick players getting on the scoresheet with Aaron Gillane top scoring with 0-13.

The victory began with Cian Lynch opening the scoring inside the first minute with the Patrickswell man adding another in the second half.

However, it was a moment of brilliance from Lynch in the 32nd minute that caught the eye.

Surrounded by four Cork players and the sliotar spilling loose, the enigma that is Lynch flicked the ball through his legs into his hand before breaking free from the Cork defence.

It was another moment of exquisite technique from Lynch who has shown his wide array of skills in the past number of years but still one that needs to be seen to be believed.

The replies to the video just confirm the other worldly abilities of Lynch.
