Coppinger and Murphy set for enthralling Munster semi-final battle

The Munster senior championship semi-final pairings were finalised at the weekend after wins for 2013 champion Martin Coppinger, Christy Mullins and Gary Daly. Aidan Murphy had already qualified.

Coppinger plays Murphy in a high-profile semi-final on Sunday, June 22 at Grange, while Mullins and Daly face off the previous day at Templemartin. The Munster final is scheduled for Sunday, June 29 at Ballygurteen.

In Ulster, last year’s champion, Eddie Carr, forfeited his tie against Thomas Mackle. Last year’s All-Ireland intermediate champion Cathal Toal will join Mackle in the final if he beats Conor McGuigan in his last group score.
