Ticketmaster has “apologised for any inconvenience caused” after supporters experienced difficulties with the online service at Sunday’s Allianz Hurling League games.

A website fault at international level, which affected other events and organisations across the globe, meant fans were not able to log on to purchase tickets on the GAA website, where the ticketing system is facilitated by Ticketmaster. There were also reports of difficulties at retail outlets.
