‘Do or die’ in Thurles as Limerick face Waterford

They’ve contested the last two Electric Ireland Munster minor hurling finals but Waterford or Limerick will bow out of the championship in Thurles this evening (7pm).

Defeats against Tipperary and Cork respectively have left both counties facing a winner-takes-all provincial playoff clash at Semple Stadium, and Limerick boss Leo O’Connor believes that the momentum is with Waterford.

O’Connor said: “We’re up against it. Waterford hurling is riding the crest of a wave after last Sunday’s Allianz League final and we know that we have a huge battle on our hands.
