Redemption as powerful Premier get hands on cup

Tipperary 1-21, Limerick 0-17: Of course it was unfair to expect Tipperary to click for a third consecutive game.

Yesterday’s All-Ireland final performance from Liam Cahill’s young charges didn’t produce seven goals, didn’t produce 25 scores, nor did it produce a 17-point winning margin.

What it did produce was a positive result. And that is what Tipperary came for. Victory is all they wanted. It’s all they’ve wanted for the past 12 months.
