Canning claims Shefflin acted in 'unsporting' manner in final

Galway forward Joe Canning has claimed that Henry Shefflin behaved in an "unsporting way" in last Sunday's drawn All-Ireland Hurling final in Croke Park.

The Portumna man said in one instance Shefflin ran 30 or 40 yards to give out to the referee for a free.

The 23-year-old added that JJ Delaney was not happy that Shefflin took his point rather than going for a goal with a late penalty.

Galway and Kilkenny meet in the replay on Sunday September 30.
