Tipp ride their luck and stay in hunt

Tipperary 1-19 Dublin 0-19

In the final round of the Allianz Hurling League with everything still finely poised, a win for Tipperary by three points or more meant they would contest a league quarter-final and condemn Dublin to a relegation play off; any other result and the opposite would be the case.

Into the final minute of the three signalled for added time and Tipperary were leading by those three points, a series of Dublin passes ended with sub Niall McMorrow standing on his own on the 45m line with plenty of time and space to slot a crucial point.
