Keating and Fitzgerald strike early for Limerick

Limerick 2-13 Sligo 0-13

A perfect start, that yielded five points in as many minutes, followed by two opportunist goals by Eoin Keating and Conor Fitzgerald, laid the foundations for Limerick's triumph.

Before garnering the two precious points on offer, however, Limerick had to withstand a strong second-half challenge from injury-stricken Sligo, short skipper Eamon O'Hara.
