For Kilkenny, Adrian Mullen [pictured above] continues to impress and inspire, Colin Fennelly grabbed a crucial goal, Richie Hogan was a nagging fly in Limerick's ointment while TJ Reid bagged a hatful of points in the first half before being bottled for most of the second.
Last but by no stretch least, Tipperary had stand-outs all over the park, especially when they turned around a five-point deficit with 20 minutes left to play. Noel McGrath and Ronan Maher were go-to titans while Jason Forde got 0-12 and Seamus Callanan razzed in his 34th championship goal. Liam Sheedy turned to his bench in the closing stages and was rewarded with scores from four of his subs.
