Galway edge Croker epic

Galway 0-23 Limerick 0-20 (aet)

A first-minute Barry Nash point for Limerick was wrongly ruled out by the score detection technology which reported a ‘miss’ instead of a point. And it proved costly for Limerick, who finished level after normal time, at 0-16 apiece, and eventually went down after extra-time.

Hawk-Eye, brought in at Croke Park earlier this year, adjudicated on a second issue later in the game, incidentally ruling out another Nash point, before being stood down for the rest of the day due to what GAA officials termed an “inconsistency with the screen graphic”.
