Mulcahy leads Limerick to victory

John Tuohy admitted he had to present his players with some home truths when he felt “they didn’t do justice to the Limerick jersey” against Cork last week.

He was delighted with the response as they edged out Tipperary 1-20 to 3-12 at Semple Stadium to keep their hopes of qualifying from Group 2 of the Liberty Insurance All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship alive.

Skipper Niamh Mulcahy shot an incredible 15 points while Sarah Carey excelled at centre-back, goalkeeper Laura O’Neill made a point-blank save from Orla O’Dwyer in the 52nd minute, and Orla Curtin scored a crucial goal six minutes later.
