Hawk-Eye nets GAA €3m as rivals to square off again
Tipperary and Kilkenny had already delivered a decider for the ages by the time Tipp’s John O’Dwyer stood over an injury-time free 100mtr from goal and the last puck of the game delivered an end line both exhilarating and deflating. O’Dwyer’s effort had the distance and there were thousands in Croke Park who believed it ticked the box for accuracy as well. Ref Barry Kelly sidestepped the decision and went ‘upstairs’ to Hawk-Eye.
‘MISS’, the two big screens declared. Seconds later, Kelly called time and the stadium announcer was declaring that these two great rivals would return on Saturday, September 27.
