Tipp thoughts turn to Cork after Corbett seals the deal
That was late in the game, following an admirable recovery from a Waterford team which had barely functioned through a first half, during which Eoin Kelly again inspired Tipp with a return of 2-4 and, in sharp contrast, Waterford’s attack stuttered and wasted a succession of chances.
What made it a real contest was the vast improvement in Waterford’s overall play in the second half, which saw them hit five scores without reply and Dan Shanahan lift their spirits with a splendid goal which left only two points between the sides.
