Having now lost the last four semi-finals, Tipperary had plenty of opportunities to raise green flags particularly in the second-half.

Galway 1-13 Tipperary 0-12

Galway, reduced to 14 players for the last three minutes plus four of stoppage, overcame a second-half scare from Tipperary to book their place in the All-Ireland senior camogie championship final following a hard-fought victory at Croke Park today. A 59th minute fortuitous goal from distance by Orlaith McGrath eventually put daylight between the sides.
