Canning braced for Clare challenge

Galway's star forward Joe Canning believes that neighbours Clare will pose a stiff test in today's GAA All-Ireland Under-21 Hurling Championship semi-final at Semple Stadium (throw-in 2.30pm).

The Banner County claimed their first Munster Under-21 crown last month, and the Portumna ace believes that they will not be content with just having a provincial title in the bag.
