Limerick goalkeeper Nickie Quaid receives treatment

The second quarter surge 

All it takes is one wise man to stem the tide. Before the turnaround, Limerick were taking on water. Kyle Hayes picked up a yellow card and Evan Niland slotted another of seven first-half frees. Suddenly, Nickie Quaid had his helmet off. The shrewd stalwart required treatment of some sort and a welcome break in play came with it. At the time, Galway led 1-12 to 1-6.
