Goal hero Hogan to start for Kilkenny

Richie Hogan, Kilkenny's "super sub" from last week's drawn game, has been handed a starting role for today's Erin All-Ireland Under-21 hurling final replay against Tipperary (Semple Stadium, throw-in 3.30pm).

The 18-year-old, who is a nephew of the legendary DJ Carey, came off the bench to slam home a vital injury-time goal for the Cats at Croke Park and keep his county's hopes alive of winning a third U-21 title in four years.
