It finished Waterford 3-21 Tipperary 1-27 before a crowd of 11,966.
For the seventh time since the inception of the Munster round-robin system, a draw was the end result. Last night in Walsh Park fits comfortably in that catalogue of classic entertainment – this was spellbinding stuff. The ingredients were all there, a sun-splashed evening, a perfectly-sized ground packed with expectant fans, and two teams loaded with huge desire.

Even when Tipperary pegged one back, it was cancelled out by the Jack Prendergast score that brought acclaim from a home support, who were sure they would experience that winning feeling again.
The humbling defeat suffered at the hands of Limerick six days previous, left Tipperary facing some serious introspection. Liam Cahill spoke afterwards about how they took ownership of it and by the end he was celebrating ‘the fight’ his team had showed.
