Galway will play Tipperary in the All-Ireland senior camogie semi-final after the Tribeswomen overcame Waterford in Sunday's quarter-final at Croke Park, by 1-12 to 1-9.

In the draw made live on RTÉ after the game, they were paired with Tipperary, who are chasing a first final appearance since 2006.

Tipp beat Galway in the league final earlier this year, to win the county's first major camogie title in 20 years.

Dublin surprised Kilkenny in Saturday's quarter-final and their reward is a semi-final meeting with All-Ireland champions Cork.

"All the semi-finals are there on merit, but Cork will be happy enough to avoid that rivalry with Galway," remarked former Cork captain Anna Geary on RTÉ.

Ursula Jacob added: "Tipperary alongside Cork are the in-form team. They will be going in as favourites. It's going to be a cracking semi-final."
