The 14,763 spectators in Thurles this evening were treated to an absorbing show of hurling as last year’s All-Ireland finalists had to settle for a point, writes John Fogarty.

Tipperary’s unbeaten run going back to last April continues but they will rue their 10 second-half wides, particularly their ones late on including Seamus Callanan’s ground stroke after Eoin Murphy had saved superby from John McGrath in the 66th minute.
