Kingdom show their class as Tipperary blown away

Kerry 1-13 Tipperary 1-5

Apart from a brief spell late in the first-half, when Tipperary scored 1-1 without reply, the defending champions were never in any real danger.

There is no substitute for skill and Kerry had it in abundance. Their handling was superb and their pace, particularly in attack, regularly stretched the Tipperary defence.
