Premier punish wasteful Limerick

EXTREMELY poor finishing cost Limerick dearly in Semple Stadium yesterday evening in this Munster minor football semi-final.

There is dubious reward for an admittedly more clinical Tipperary, however, as they now advance to meet Kerry, conquerors of Cork, in the final. On the evidence of this encounter, vast improvement will be needed if Tipp are to have any chance in that one.

A sterile first-half performance by that Limerick attack saw them waste the strong wind advantage on what was a sun-kissed evening in Thurles.
